The SPD is angry, but the Union keeps all options open: despite the promise in the coalition agreement, the planned Bafög increase is questionable. The most important questions and answers.
The BAföG reform is agreed in the coalition agreement of Union and SPD. But now Minister Bär scolds about a "full cascade study". The SPD is appalled.
The Federal Government is currently not making any commitment to the Bafög increase agreed in the coalition agreement. Government spokesman Kornelius said in Berlin that the planned reform of the study funding is subject to a funding reserve. The coalition partner SPD is outraged and warns against damage to the coalition if the Union unilaterally cancels the project.
It is another categorization of the black-red coalition: Union politicians and also the government spokesman express themselves reluctantly to skeptically about plans for a Bafög reform. The SPD counters and accuses the Union of "necessarily" insecurity.
Is there a BAföG increase or not? Actually, the reform should be decided in the cabinet at the end of July and start for the winter semester. But now it is open whether it will even come.
The fact that students have to work to finance their studies is not a scandal. The Bafög is not a social benefit like any other.
