300 million DKK from the inflation aid needs to go to “vulnerable families with children”, basically the poorest families in Denmark. Unfortunately, the debate about how to distribute the money took a wrong turn, when some political parties asked that “vulnerable families with children with another ethnic background than Danish” should not receive any part of the money.
- Next week there will be a debate between the political parties to decide how and who gets the money.
- The three far right parties (Nye Borgerlige, DF and DD-Inger Stojberg) do not want “unemployed immigrant families” to receive support.
- One of the government parties, Moderaterne, strongly supports that there should not be a difference between poor families with children, regardless of ethnic background.
- The prime minister, Mette Frederiksen said that the most likely recipients of this support are the families that used to receive “særlige børnetilskud”.
