FDP rejects Greens' proposal for basic child welfare. Family Minister Lisa Paus wants to ensure that authorities actively offer poor families basic security.

The reform is expected to create 5,000 new jobs. The coalition agreed on basic child security last summer, but many details of implementation are still open. So far it is planned that the law will come into force in 2025 - but there are now doubts about this schedule within the coalition. The traffic light government wants to combat child poverty more effectively.
