Last Plenary Week in the National Council Before the Turn of the Year

More than 50 agenda items are to be dealt with by the deputies over three meeting days. On Wednesday, decisions from the finance and economic sectors are primarily on the agenda, including a fraud prevention package, the expansion of the tobacco monopoly, and measures intended to combat inflation.

National Council starts into busy plenary week

At the beginning of the meeting day, a current hour takes place under the title chosen by the ÖVP "Upswing for Austria". This is followed by a "Current European Hour", where, at the request of the NEOS, there will be a debate on the "united Europe" as a "countermodel to Putin's henchmen". However, not yet on the agenda for Wednesday is the so-called "Anti-Deceptive Packaging Law" (Anti-Shrinkflation) and the "Cheaper Electricity Law" (Electricity Market Law) - the former is not expected to come to the plenary until February or March, while the latter is to be discussed on Thursday.
