The Schaffhausen Canton Council has made a contribution of 100,000 francs to Zurich’s cultural institutions in the 2024 budget. A minority criticized the fact that Zurich residents would not pay anything for Schaffhausen’s offers.
By 36 votes to 16, the canton council decided during the budget debate to withdraw 100,000 francs from the lottery winnings fund and transfer it to the canton of Zurich, as requested by the government council.
However, a majority of the audit committee wanted to scrap the amount. The committee noted that citizens of the Canton of Schaffhausen would benefit from the cultural offerings in the Canton of Zurich.
But residents of nearby communities in Zurich would also attend cultural events in Schaffhausen – and this without the Canton of Zurich compensating the canton or the city of Schaffhausen. An interpretation assignment is needed; First of all, it must be clear who benefits from whom and how much.
You shouldn’t be ‘small-minded’.
Such a grumpy spirit in the cultural sector is shameful, according to supporters of the article. You should not give the signal that you are “grouch” or “narrow-minded”.
Government councilor Patrick Strasser (SP) also pointed out that waiving the amount negotiated with Zurich could cost the canton of Schaffhausen more. If the federal government were to step aside, it could force the canton of Schaffhausen to equalize cultural charges, which would currently cost around 480,000 francs.
The Schaffhausen canton council has been working on the 2024 budget since Monday morning. He wants it discussed and approved late Monday evening. (SDA)
