Departing government members donate their severance pay to charity
Prime Minister Péter Magyar announced that, in accordance with a government decision, departing government members will waive their severance pay. The politicians have decided to donate the entire amount due to them to charitable causes.
The support will be received by a children's home in Transcarpathia. The purpose of the decision is to direct the funds to a place where help is greatly needed, especially in the current difficult economic and humanitarian situation.
At the press conference, the Prime Minister emphasized that government officials wish to express their solidarity with this gesture. The initiative highlights the importance of community cooperation and helping those in need.
The leadership of the Transcarpathian institution gratefully accepted the offer. The support will provide significant assistance for the daily operation of the children's home and for improving the care of the children.
The decision of the departing government members could serve as an exemplary model in public life, as the renunciation of personal benefits by political actors is a rare but important step in the field of social responsibility.
