The Saxon state government plans to invest a total of 1.54 billion euros in infrastructure and services of general interest by 2036. The money, which comes from the federal government's so-called special fund, is to be invested in "hospitals and university medicine, mobility, housing, hydraulic engineering, care, sport and culture", among other things, according to the Ministry of Finance in Dresden.
According to this, 254 million euros will initially be made available in the current 2025/26 biennial budget - as well as the same amount in each of the upcoming biennial budgets up to 2036. "The funds are to be used where they will have the greatest structural benefit," said Saxony's Finance Minister Christian Piwarz (CDU).
