The Greens in the Saxon state parliament are demanding clarity about the future of numerous integration projects in the state. "More and more organizations and associations are informing us that their applications for funding under the "Integrative Measures" directive have been rejected," explained parliamentary group leader Franziska Schubert and demanded transparency from the Ministry of Social Affairs about "what has happened here".
According to Schubert, the state parliament had allocated 14.5 million euros per year for integration work - from large structural measures to small sponsorship programs. The Ministry of Social Affairs had previously planned massive cuts in this area, but together with the left-wing parliamentary group, they were able to avert them.
