Budapest Mayor Gergely Karácsony has proposed councillors Ambrus Kiss and David Vitézy to fill the posts of deputy mayor, according to the agenda of the municipal assembly meeting set for Wednesday.
The opposition Socialists have proposed the government should set up a fund for the prevention of violence against women and to include the fight against domestic violence as a subject in the national curriculum, the party's parliamentary deputy group leader said on Monday, marking International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.
Government commissioner for Budapest Botond Sára, a Fidesz politician, is preparing to have independent MP Bence Tordai’s house demolished, on the grounds that it was built without a permit, and the law mandates the demolition of any house built irregularly or illegally.
Commenting on reports that the mayor of Budapest, Gergely Karacsony, plans to nominate David Vitezy and Ambrus Kiss as his deputies, Fidesz group leader in the Budapest assembly, Alexandra Szentkiralyi, on Wednesday called "the deal unworthy of the people of Budapest" as it solely spoke to "power and money".
