Petra Pecková stated that she heard Motorist MP Miroslav Krejčí talking about the need to significantly increase the number of special schools in connection with changes to school inclusion. According to her, Krejčí said that the capacities should be provided by the regions, and that if these were insufficient, their funding from RUD could be reduced. Pecková asked if Krejčí knew how much money the regions had lost since January due to the current government's measures. According to her, the Central Bohemian Region is now roughly four billion crowns in the red. She noted that the state sent the region two billion less for social services, another 500 million crowns is intended for salary increases in social services, and about 900 million for changes in wage tariffs and salary increases for officials, cultural workers, and public administration employees. The increase in wages in healthcare, she said, means an impact of 450 million crowns. She further wrote that the regions lost money for regional roads, estimating the impact on the Central Bohemian Region at between 340 million and one billion crowns over the years. According to her, she did not even take into account the VAT from compensations to public transport carriers, which should have an impact of 1.4 billion crowns. Pecková messaged Krejčí that if the regions lose funding from RUD due to insufficient capacity of special schools, which she claims do not have the means to build them, he could finance them from donations from his sponsors. She added that money from gambling could thus serve a good purpose. #školství #inkluzivnívzdělávání #sociálníslužby (translated)

So let's say what Prague is. Who owns the hospitals? They belong to the Ministry of Health. Who owns the monuments? Who will build the Invalidovna? Who will pay for it? Well, our government. Who will build the Prague ring road? The Road and Motorway Directorate. And the universities, who finances them? Our government. When Babiš says that he will loosen their purse strings a bit now since they invest insufficiently anyway, it undoubtedly sounds like post-election threats, but it is not new. #Praha #Babiš #komunálnívolby (translated)
