Saxony could benefit from additional federal funding for social housing. In the coming year, this would be just under 25 million euros, the Ministry of Infrastructure announced in its response to a minor question from Left Party politician Juliane Nagel. However, the Bundestag would have to approve the plans adopted by the Federal Cabinet and the distribution would still have to be based on the Königstein key. In relation to this year, the additional sum could be just under 75 million euros in 2027 and a good 99 million euros in the following two years.
In 2025, Saxony will receive 149.5 million euros from the federal government for this purpose, with the Free State's share amounting to just under 50 million euros.
