New PM’s Office Breaks Heritage Rules
Contrary to former plans made public, a balcony is being built on the Danube-facing side of the Carmelite convent in Buda Castle now being converted for use as the Prime Minister’s Office. As the balcony is not part of the original 250-year old building, the addition may violate regulations regarding cultural heritage.

However, the project has been classed as a prominent investment so that the Prime Minister’s Office need not observe such regulations.
