Rated by a language model following a public methodology. Indicative and unofficial, not an official statistic. As of . 141 of 143 commitments assessed, 2 unmeasurable.

Ratings are generated by a language model following a public methodology, from searches across a fixed list of sources. They are indicative and unofficial, may contain errors, and are no substitute for checking primary sources. “Fulfilled” requires the change to have cleared the entire legislative process and been published in the Collection of Laws; commitments too vague to measure are excluded from the percentages.

1. Key government priorities

Five strategic directions

  1. Cheaper energy & energy security; reject ETS2Declared only#1.1

    The government rejected ETS2 in its first resolution (16 Dec 2025) and from February 2026 actively negotiates changes in the EU system, initiating a declaration of 18 countries. However, this is only a political stance and international lobbying – ETS2 still functions legislatively and the government has not yet implemented it into Czech law. The 'rejection' remains declarative.

  2. Affordable free healthcare, shorter waiting timesPartially fulfilled#1.2

    Government increased the rate for state insured persons to 2479 Kč and transferred 7.9 billion Kč from VZP to smaller insurers. Introduced electronic referrals (eZádanky) for waiting time monitoring from January 2026. These steps are legislatively implemented. However, waiting times for specialists remain long; increased funding is only partial and availability of primary care is deteriorating. Key measures like zero VAT on prescription drugs remain under analysis without concrete decision.

    Evidence: Vyhláška č. 432/2025 Sb. (úhradová vyhláška), v účinnosti od 1. 1. 2026; sazba za státního pojištěnce 2479 Kč (zvýšeno ze 2188 Kč)

  3. Affordable housing as a public interestPartially fulfilled#1.3

    Building Act (adopted by Fiala government, July 2024) is in force and Babiš government uses it. Affordable housing programme continues and government expanded it by 6 billion Kč. It is continuation of previous programme, not new initiative. Government did not change basic structure, only continues with increased financing. Housing as public interest is declared in programme.

    Evidence: Program Dostupné nájemní bydlení pokračuje z výzvy předchozí vlády; vláda Babiše jej převzala. Celkem 7 mld. Kč na 2000 bytů do poloviny 2026; dosavadně zasmluvněno 2300 bytů za 7 mld. Kč (duben 2026). Nová vláda přidala dalších 6 mld. Kč (červen 2026) z evropských fondů.

  4. Fair pensions, retirement age capped at 65Not started#1.4

    Minister Juchelka (Labour and Social Affairs) admitted at July 2026 meeting that ministry completed only 11 of 83 tasks. Age cap at 65 years postponed to next amendment; not mentioned in legislative outlook. Government has been aware since May that promise will be difficult to fulfil, but has not started active work.

  5. Safe country, zero tolerance of illegal migrationDeclared only#1.5

    Government rejected EU migration pact by resolution at first meeting (16 Dec 2025) and declares zero-tolerance policy on illegal migration. However: EU pact entered into force on 12 June 2026 regardless of Czech position; pact is de facto applied in Czechia. Government has not formally adopted it into legal order, but practically abides by it as part of EU law. This is political gesture without legal substance.

2. Public finances

Sound public finances

  1. Keep the deficit safely below 3% of GDPDeclared only#2.1

    Government declares target of 2.9% structural deficit for 2027 after this year's 2.4%, but without binding mechanism. Economist Křeček stresses this is still close to critical 3% threshold and long-term unsustainable. Deficit reached 310 billion CZK (2.4% GDP) this year.

  2. Gradually cut the deficit toward a balanced budgetBroken / abandoned#2.2

    Government promises gradual deficit reduction, but reality is opposite: deficit reached 310 billion CZK this year, next year government plans deficit of at least 350–380 billion CZK (thus increase). PM Babiš admitted consolidation is not on agenda. Opposite of promise.

Tax collection & grey economy

  1. Introduce EET 2.0 from 2027In progress#2.3

    Government approved EET 2.0 bill on May 4, 2026, for implementation from January 1, 2027. Chamber of Deputies passed it on July 15, 2026, now in Senate. Legislative process ongoing but not yet completed.

  2. Launch the AI-powered 'Digital Tax Cobra'Not started#2.4

    Government only declares launch of 'Digital Tax Cobra' with AI, without concrete legislative or executive steps. Project mentioned only in Schillerová's rhetoric; lacks legal basis and implementation timeline.

  3. Expand Customs powers; 50k CZK starting salaryNot started#2.5

    No evidence found in available sources about expanding Customs Administration competencies or 50k CZK entry salary. Government does not mention this measure in accessible materials.

Lower taxes

  1. Do not raise any taxesBroken / abandoned#2.6

    Government promises no tax increases but introduces new excise tax on kratom (1.2 billion CZK annually per ministry). Also raises flat tax for 'EET OFF' from 100 CZK to 1,500 CZK monthly (de facto tax increase for smallest entrepreneurs). Raises OSVČ assessment base. Breaks promise.

  2. Cut corporate income tax to 19%Broken / abandoned#2.7

    Government promises to reduce corporate tax from 21% to 19%. Schillerová announced in March 2026 preference for accelerated depreciation instead. Currently (August 2026) unclear if promise will be kept at all. Promise effectively abandoned.

  3. Restore pre-school tax relief & spouse creditIn progress#2.8

    Government included return of nursery tax relief and spouse deduction into tax law amendment as part of EET 2.0 package. Measures included in bill approved May 4, 2026, now in legislative process (Senate). Not a standalone law.

  4. Introduce 0% VAT on prescription drugsIn progress#2.9

    Government included zero VAT on prescription drugs into legislative proposal (part of EET 2.0 package) approved May 4, 2026. Proposal in legislative process. Specific legal regulation with effective date not yet known but part of active process.

  5. Stop raising the self-employed contribution baseIn progress#2.10

    Government included stopping increase of OSVČ assessment base (remain at 35% average wage) in EET 2.0 bill. Measure part of government proposal in process (Senate). Meanwhile planning return from July 1, 2026, with retroactive effect on H1 2026.

Administration & transparency

  1. Create a single tax/insurance collection pointNot started#2.11

    No evidence found in available sources about establishing unified collection point. Government does not mention this measure in accessible materials.

  2. Public register of NGO subsidiesNot started#2.12

    No evidence found in available sources about creating public register of NGO subsidies. Government does not mention this measure.

  3. Cut VAT refund on unpaid invoices to 3 monthsIn progress#2.13

    Government included shortening VAT refund period from 6 to 3 months into legislative proposal (part of EET 2.0 package). Measure included in government bill in legislative process (Senate).

Monetary sovereignty

  1. Reject the euro; anchor koruna & cash in the ConstitutionDeclared only#2.14

    Government declares euro rejection and koruna anchoring in Constitution, but without concrete legislative steps. PM Babiš opposes euro, but no constitutional amendment bill submitted to parliament.

  2. Offer Republic Bonds to small saversNot started#2.15

    No evidence found in available sources about offering Republic Bonds to small savers. Government does not mention this measure.

3. Internal security & public administration

Pay & conditions of security forces

  1. 50k CZK starting pay for police & firefightersDeclared only#3.1

    The government promises an entry salary of 50,000 CZK for police, but no bill was submitted. In reality, entry salary is ~30–32,000 CZK; planned 5% increase from 1.1.2026 stems from previous government decision (2024). Legislative step to achieve the target amount is missing.

  2. Housing allowance up to 6,000 CZK/month by regionDeclared only#3.2

    The government's program promises housing allowance of up to 6,000 CZK/month by region. The old housing allowance continues; from May 2026, it is gradually replaced by a consolidated benefit that does not reach the promised level for all groups. No new law of this type was adopted – it remains only a program declaration.

Police & public order

  1. Return police to the streets, stop closing stationsNot started#3.3

    The government promises to return police to streets and halt station closures. In the program declaration, these are mere general intentions without specific legislative or administrative steps. No bill or government resolution implementing such measures is known; there is also no closure plan.

  2. Strengthen NÚKIB & critical-infrastructure protectionIn progress#3.4

    The National Cybersecurity Strategy 2026–2030 was approved by government on 3.9.2025 (BEFORE this government took office on 15.12.2025). Project Černá Pole 3 runs under EU funding until 2029. NÚKIB strengthening is planned but no new legislation under this government's authority has been adopted yet. This represents continuation of older initiatives.

Migration & asylum

  1. Reject the EU migration pactDeclared only#3.5

    The government rejected the EU migration pact by resolution at its first meeting on 16.12.2025. However, this is merely a declaration of position: the pact is already part of EU law and binding on Czechia. The government abstained from voting in 2024 and in 2026 Czechia has an exemption from solidarity due to Ukrainian refugees. Legal withdrawal is effectively impossible without EU sanctions.

  2. Pass a new migration & asylum lawDeclared only#3.6

    The government's program promises a new migration and asylum law. The interior minister was tasked with submitting a legislative framework proposal. No bill has been submitted to parliament yet. This is a declared goal without any legislative step.

Rescue system & recruitment

  1. Network of unified recruitment & training centresNot started#3.7

    A network of unified recruitment and training centers is not explicitly mentioned in the government program. The program only mentions closer cooperation between interior and defense ministries. No legislative or implementation step has been initiated.

  2. Modernise police/fire equipment, support volunteer unitsDeclared only#3.8

    The program promises modernization of police and fire service equipment and support for volunteer fire departments. No law or government decree has been adopted yet. The interior minister increased the police budget by 544 million CZK (July 2025), but this is a budget step within existing legal framework, not a new law or legal regime.

4. Defence & the Armed Forces

Management & doctrine

  1. Audit of MoD spending & acquisitionsDeclared only#4.1

    Minister Zůna announced reworking of the defense ministry's financial audit plan in January 2026. The government approved in March 2026 an intention to overhaul eleven laws concerning defense. However, the audit itself as a legislative or specific executive measure is not documented—it remains a declared intention without actual initiation.

  2. New Armed Forces Build-up Concept 2035In progress#4.2

    The Army Development Concept 2035 was approved by the previous government in December 2023. Babiš's government continues updating it toward 2040; Minister Zůna was to present it by end of May 2026. The process is ongoing but not yet concluded—the government is thus addressing the commitment thematically rather than formally with a new document.

  3. Reject creation of an 'EU Army'Declared only#4.3

    (unmeasurable)

    The government declares rejection of an EU army and Okamura publicly criticizes the idea of a common European army. However, the commitment is formulated very broadly and its fulfillment cannot be objectively measured—it is a political position, not a specific legislative or institutional measure with measurable impact.

Capabilities & industry

  1. Strengthen air & counter-drone defenceIn progress#4.4

    Minister Zůna announced strengthening of SPYDER systems (four additional batteries); first parts are in Czech territory and preparation is ongoing. Delivery is planned for 2026–2027. The process continues as planned, but final handover and system certification are not yet concluded. This is thus an ongoing project, not a completed commitment.

  2. Maximise Czech defence-industry share of contractsDeclared only#4.5

    The government program includes a declaration about increased participation of Czech companies in defense acquisitions. The government stated that Czech industry will be more involved (e.g., SPYDER has 30–38% Czech share). However, without a specific legislative framework or enforceable criteria, this remains a declaration. Contact between the minister and industry is documented, but no new legal or institutional steps are evidenced.

Personnel

  1. 50k CZK starting soldier pay from 2026Partially fulfilled#4.6

    The entry-level soldier's salary is currently around 50,000 CZK, matching the program pledge. However, the increase was largely implemented by the previous government; Babiš's government inherited rather than initiated this. The pledge is met factually, not by this government's action. Without documentation of new legislation or increases implemented by this government after 15 December 2025, the status remains "partial."

  2. Increase professional soldiers & active reservesIn progress#4.7

    Military recruitment in 2026 exceeded the plan (3,300 soldiers vs. 2,250 planned). The concept envisages 32,000 soldiers by 2030. The process continues and the trend is favorable, but final achievement of targets is not yet concluded. This is an ongoing effort, not a fulfilled commitment.

5. Foreign policy

Orientation

  1. Revive Visegrád Group relationsPartially fulfilled#5.1

    Government restored formal V4 cooperation: Babiš attended prime ministers' summit in June 2026 in Gödöllő, where leaders pledged to strengthen cooperation. However, the initiative came from the Hungarian side (PM Magyar), not from Babiš. While meetings are planned for future, real political impact remains unmeasurable; the group still struggles with differences on Russia and Ukraine.

  2. Strengthen ties with the US and IsraelPartially fulfilled#5.2

    Relations with USA and Israel demonstrably strengthened on level of personal contact and economic cooperation. FM Macinka met Israeli FM Saar four times by mid-July 2026, visits in both countries with business delegations. Czech-Israeli business forum established. However, government has not agreed on concrete goals (such as embassy relocation), only discussing them; on American side Macinka renewed dialogue with Trump administration, but without tangible results in form of new contracts or security agreements.

  3. Support a diplomatic end to the war in UkraineDeclared only#5.3

    Government only declares support for diplomatic settlement: Babiš talks about peace processes, met Zelenskyj and advocates for Germany's role. But concrete steps supporting negotiations are missing. Government has in fact moved toward mixed signals – Czechia refused to finance ammunition initiative for Ukraine, nor did it commit to NATO military packages for Ukraine, which Babiš considers excessive. This effectively reinforces a state that blurs the line between diplomatic solution and de facto one-sided concessions to Ukraine.

EU & institutions

  1. No further powers to the EU; defend unanimityBroken / abandoned#5.4

    Government violated pledge: Despite rhetoric about defending unanimity in EU, government demonstrably withdrew from EU migration pact, refused to participate in Ukraine financing within EU frameworks and does not exercise veto right where it should. EU budget was being prepared without Czechia actively defending its interests. Babiš's claims about pragmatism and sovereignty thus rely more on unilateral decision-making than on consistent application of unanimity principle.

  2. Abolish the minister for European affairs postFulfilled#5.5

    Government truly abolished the post of minister for European affairs, which existed in previous Fiala government. Measure was implemented upon government formation in December 2025 and European affairs agenda is now handled by FM Petr Macinka.

    Evidence: Zrušení postu ministra pro evropské záležitosti proběhlo při formování vlády v prosinci 2025; post formálně přestal existovat.

  3. Boost economic diplomacy & export diversificationPartially fulfilled#5.6

    Government initiated formal support for economic diplomacy: FM Macinka participated in economic diplomacy conference in June 2026 with business delegations, visited Israel with business delegation and Saudi Arabia. Initiated Czech-Israeli business forum. But concrete economic agreements or legislative steps are missing. Export diversification remains at level of declarations and ad hoc visits, without systematic plan or measurable targets.

6. Law & justice

Criminal policy

  1. Tougher penalties for violence against the vulnerableIn progress#6.1

    The government stated in its manifesto (January 5, 2026) that it would submit an amendment tightening penalties for violence against seniors, women, and children. In March 2026, Justice Minister Jeroným Tejc announced support for a parliamentary proposal on clarifying penalties for domestic violence. The proposal has been prepared but the legislative process in parliament is not yet complete.

  2. Anti-drug amendment to the criminal codeFulfilled#6.2

    A comprehensive amendment to the Criminal Code came into force on January 1, 2026, before this government formally took office (December 15, 2025). The amendment regulates drug offenses and introduces partial legalization of cannabis. Since it was enacted in January 2026, prior to this government's formal start, it is not a direct achievement of this administration, although the manifesto pledges to continue drug policy.

    Evidence: Zákon č. 334/2025 Sb., novelizující trestní zákoník, účinný od 1. 1. 2026

  3. Full criminal liability for dodging child supportPartially fulfilled#6.3

    The amendment of January 1, 2026 partially decriminalized non-payment of maintenance (when the child is not endangered by destitution). On March 2, 2026, the government supported a parliamentary proposal to reintroduce criminal liability, but only in a narrower form – punishment for non-payment exceeding 4 months only for intentional acts (not negligence). This represents a partial return to criminalization.

    Evidence: Zákon č. 334/2025 Sb. (účinný 1. 1. 2026) a poslanecký návrh podporovaný vládou 2. března 2026

  4. Clear rules on legitimate self-defenceDeclared only#6.4

    The manifesto (January 5, 2026) promises "clear and fair rules on lawful self-defense," so citizens can defend their homes without fear. Since then, despite being a declared goal, the government has not initiated concrete legislative action. Senators have been working on an amendment since 2022, but this is not a current government initiative.

Judiciary & prisons

  1. Modernise criminal & civil procedure codesIn progress#6.5

    The government stated in its manifesto (January 5, 2026) that it would modernize the Criminal Procedure Code and Civil Procedure Code. In summer 2026, the Justice Ministry launched a comment procedure on a draft amendment with 58 changes, which would take effect July 1, 2027. The legislative process is in preparation but not yet finalized.

  2. 50k CZK starting pay in the prison serviceBroken / abandoned#6.6

    The manifesto (January 5, 2026) promises a starting salary of 50,000 CZK for the Prison Service. In reality, the starting salary for Prison Service officers is 31,500–34,500 CZK. In January 2026 it increased by 5%, and in July 2026 an additional 3,000 CZK was added, but this remains far below the promised 50,000 CZK. The promise has not been fulfilled.

  3. Expand electronic tags & alternative sentencesPartially fulfilled#6.7

    The Criminal Code amendment of January 1, 2026 (under the previous government) expands options for alternative penalties (community service, home confinement, supervision, mediation). From March 2026, Minister Tejc initiated renewed training of judges on using alternative penalties. Electronic monitoring has been operational since September 2025, but its use remains very low (130 people with tags in March 2026). Expansion is formally legislatively prepared but practical use remains limited.

    Evidence: Zákon č. 334/2025 Sb. (účinný 1. 1. 2026)

Rights & referendum

  1. Repeal the 'unauthorised activity for foreign power' offenceNot started#6.8

    The manifesto (January 5, 2026) proposes abolishing the offense of unauthorized activity for a foreign power. Since then, the government has not initiated concrete legislative action. Senators attempted a change in May 2025, but this was under the previous government. No documented action by the Babiš government in this direction.

  2. National referendum law (excluding EU & NATO)Declared only#6.9

    The manifesto promises a law on national referendum (excluding EU and NATO), but the government has not yet launched concrete legislative proceedings. Justice Minister Tejc requires at least one-quarter of all voters as a condition, Speaker Okamura (SPD) pushes for a lower number. Coalition needs opposition support as this requires a constitutional supermajority. Without parliamentary consensus, it remains a mere declaration.

7. Economy, industry & energy

Energy prices

  1. State takes over the renewables (POZE) levyFulfilled#7.1

    The government approved taking over full financing of renewable energy support on its first session (16 Dec 2025) at 41.734 bn CZK. The Energy Regulatory Office issued amended pricing decision before year-end 2025, so electricity price reduction took effect 1 Jan 2026 without delay. Fulfilment is measurable and effective.

    Evidence: Usnesení vlády č. 1022/2025 ze dne 16. 12. 2025

  2. Do not implement ETS2 into Czech lawBroken / abandoned#7.2

    Promise was impossible from the start — ETS2 is implemented in the EU by direct application of Regulation 2019/1122, and Czechia cannot decline. Government made no commitment to non-implementation, and the pledge was fiction. No action to 'refuse' implementation was taken, as this is legally impossible.

Nuclear & firm power

  1. Gain 100% control of ČEZ generationIn progress#7.3

    ČEZ shareholder meeting (1 June 2026) approved restructuring plan: generation under 100% state control, trading and distribution spun off. Minister Havlíček confirmed process to take ~2.5 years, detailed schedule expected late 2026/early 2027. No legislation or asset transfer yet complete — this is ongoing structured restructuring, not simple purchase.

  2. Start Dukovany 5 & 6; prepare Temelín 3 & 4In progress#7.4

    Dukovany 5, 6 construction was initiated under previous government (final KHNP contract June 2025). Current government continues — administrative building ED II reached rough construction stage; block construction expected to start 2029. Temelín 3, 4 — government preparing, final decision expected 2027. Partial inheritance, partial ongoing preparation.

  3. Prepare conditions for small modular reactors (SMR)Declared only#7.5

    Program statement (5 Jan 2026): 'Prepare legislative and financial conditions for SMR investment and component production in CR.' Minister Havlíček repeatedly mentioned SMR as part of future energy mix. No specific legislative draft, decree, or measure yet evident — this is declaration of intent without implementation step.

  4. Introduce capacity mechanisms, speed up gas plantsIn progress#7.6

    Government declared capacity mechanisms in programme. Minister Havlíček announced EU notification planned (Jan 2026), investor selection to start Oct 2026. Gas sources — first plants to build from 2028, operational by 2031. Specific timelines and plan exist, but actual legislative or procurement steps not yet taken — declaration with following timeline.

Business & investment

  1. Shift from subsidies to depreciation-based supportNot started#7.7

    Transition from subsidy to depreciation-based support was not included in government programme statement. Minister Havlíček spoke in Feb 2026 about motivating 'private sector to invest via depreciation,' but no specific legislative draft or tax-depreciation reform has begun. This is general intent in economic strategy without law or concrete measure.

  2. Start-up support actNot started#7.8

    Law on startup support was not included in government programme statement (5 Jan 2026) or other priorities. Government spoke generally about supporting R&D and innovation, but specifically 'law on startup support' was never mentioned or initiated. No declaration of such intent has been made.

  3. Major reform of business red tapeDeclared only#7.9

    Government declared 'reducing bureaucracy' and 'fundamental reform of administrative burden' in programme (5 Jan 2026) and minister Havlíček repeatedly. EET 2.0 and Building Act mentioned (in process but initiated by previous government). No specific 'law on bureaucratic burden' has appeared — declaration without concrete legislative draft.

  4. Submit the 'Country for the Future 2.0' economic strategyFulfilled#7.10

    Government approved and publicly presented economic strategy 'Czechia: Land for the Future 2.0' (20 Feb 2026). Document is comprehensive, containing specific targets in energy, infrastructure, housing, innovation, export. Issued as public document with timelines and priorities. Fulfilment is measurable and publicly available.

    Evidence: Hospodářská strategie 'Česko: Země pro budoucnost 2.0' schválena a představena vládou 20. 2. 2026

8. Transport

Motorways

  1. Complete D11 & link to Poland by 2029Not started#8.1

    By 2029, the government promises to complete D11 to the Polish border. The government approved a budget increase of CZK 26 billion for the Transport Infrastructure Fund in early 2026, enabling construction continuation, but without a specific legislative or executive action taken after 15 December 2025, this cannot be called fulfillment. The border section (3 km) is to be completed in H2 2026 – this is not an explicit new government commitment, but a continuation of the previous cabinet's project.

  2. D3 across South Bohemia to Austria by 2027In progress#8.2

    The promise is to complete D3 through South Bohemia to Austria by 2027. Construction of the southernmost section from Nažidly to Dolní Dvořiště is already underway (opening in H1 2026, specifically August), and the border section is to be commissioned also in H2 2026. The government has not taken new action, but continues a project initiated earlier. By H1 2026, the connection with Austria should be nearly complete.

  3. Prague ring road to Černý Most by 2027In progress#8.3

    The promise is to complete the Prague Ring Road to Černý Most by 2027. Construction of the key D0 511 section between Běchovice and D1 is underway with completion targeted for end of 2027. Related adjustments in the Černý Most area are being prepared (building permits issued spring 2026). The government supports the project budgetarily (CZK 26 billion for Transport Infrastructure Fund), but no new legislative or executive action taken after 15 December 2025 is documented – only continuation of the ongoing project.

Railways

  1. Raise corridor speeds to 200 km/hDeclared only#8.4

    The promise is to increase speed on selected corridors to 200 km/h. The government's program statement approved on 5 January 2026 contains a declaration: 'The priority in railways will be existing corridors where we will gradually increase speed to 200 km/h, on sections of at least 70 km.' Without specific legislation or commencement of construction work, this is merely a declaration. Specific sections or implementation schedule are not documented.

  2. Link Prague, the airport & Kladno by 2029In progress#8.5

    By 2029, connect Prague, airport and Kladno. The Prague–Airport–Kladno railway project is supported by budget (increase of CZK 26 billion for Transport Infrastructure Fund). At the end of 2025, favorable EIA opinion was issued for the Dejvice–Veleslavín tunnel section and final building permit for the Ruzyně–Kladno track. Construction between Prague and Kladno should begin spring 2026. Without government legislative action after 15 December 2025, this is continuation of a project but without new steps directly from the government.

  3. Fit main corridors with ETCS by 2029In progress#8.6

    By 2029, equip main corridors with ETCS system. The government program statement approved 5 January 2026 promises: 'Main corridors will be equipped by 2029 with the ETCS safety system.' ETCS rollout is already underway – since January 2025 exclusive operation is running on 622 km of tracks, in H1 2026 it should be introduced on the Prague–Czech Budějovice corridor. The government introduced no new legislative step, only confirming continuation of a project initiated earlier.

Prices & rules

  1. Restore 75% fare discounts for students & seniorsDeclared only#8.7

    Restore 75% discount on fares for students and seniors. The government program statement approved 5 January 2026 explicitly states: 'The cabinet also plans to restore discounts on fares for students and seniors at 75 percent.' This is a pure declaration without legislative action or government executive act. The Ministry of Transport presented an amendment proposal, but it has not yet been adopted by the Chamber of Deputies.

  2. Reject the 2035 combustion-engine banDeclared only#8.8

    Reject ban on combustion engines from 2035. The government program statement approved 5 January 2026 contains: 'The incoming government rejects the ban on combustion engines from 2035.' This is a pure declaration of government positions without any legislative action. The Czech Republic has no legal means to unilaterally reject EU regulations – the statement is therefore purely declarative without actual legal impact.

  3. Modernise Prague Airport incl. rail linkIn progress#8.9

    Modernize Prague Airport including rail connection. The government program statement approved 5 January 2026 contains: 'We will support the Prague Airport modernization project, including rail connection from the city center.' The airport is conducting preparatory work – construction of cable ducts and transformer stations for over CZK 1 billion is underway (contractor selected November 2025, completion December 2026). The government supports the project budgetarily (CZK 26 billion increase for Transport Infrastructure Fund), but without specific new legislative or executive action after 15 December 2025, this is continuation of earlier preparations.

9. Education

Funding & pay

  1. Raise education spending toward the OECD averageDeclared only#9.1

    Government committed to increasing education spending to OECD average in its program declaration, but has not gone beyond the statement. For 2026 budget, the government took over the proposal (283 billion CZK) without explicit increase. Specific legislative or financial step is missing.

  2. 50k CZK starting teacher salaryDeclared only#9.2

    Entry salary of 50,000 CZK is stated in the government program approved on January 5, 2026, but without specific legislative step. Minister Plaga (2026) wanted to achieve this goal by 2027, signaling it is not yet implemented. This is a declaration, not a fulfilled commitment.

  3. 75k CZK average teacher pay by term's endDeclared only#9.3

    Average salary of 75,000 CZK by end of term (year 2029) is stated in program declaration and confirmed by minister Plaga as goal for 2027. Without specific financial or legislative step, this is only a declaration. Current average salary (2026) is ~58.8k CZK, so the goal is ambitious but not yet realized.

  4. Introduce a career system for teachers & headsDeclared only#9.4

    Career development framework instead of salary tables for teachers and principals is mentioned in program statement (Jan 5, 2026), confirmed by minister Plaga as goal. No legislative proposal has been registered yet. This is only a declaration of intent without concrete steps.

Content & structure

  1. Revise inclusion, strengthen special schoolsDeclared only#9.5

    Inclusion revision with strengthening special schools is in program statement (Jan 5, 2026), but without specific legislative step. School law amendment was discussed at government meeting in May (May 25, 2026), but without details in available reports. Declaration without proof of execution.

  2. Reform secondary-school admissionsDeclared only#9.6

    Change of secondary school entrance exams (tests before applications) is mentioned in program statement (Jan 5, 2026), but no specific legislative step has been registered. Minister Plaga is not directly cited on this point. This is a declaration without implementation.

  3. Expand dual & vocational educationDeclared only#9.7

    Expansion of dual education and apprenticeships is stated in program declaration (Jan 5, 2026), but without specific legislative or executive step. At government meeting on July 20, 2026, an amendment to school law from MPs Babiš and Plaga was approved, but without content details. Cannot verify if it concerns dual education.

Universities

  1. Public-university quality-assurance actIn progress#9.8

    Law on ensuring quality of public universities: At government meeting May 25, 2026, the government discussed a draft law on education registries (student and teacher registries), but no mention of university quality assurance. Legislative process is not documented. This does not explicitly fulfill this point.

  2. Expand Erasmus+ & support for poorer studentsDeclared only#9.9

    Expanding Erasmus+ capacity and support for poorer students: Available reports (through August 2026) make no mention of concrete measures on this point. Program statement includes it generally, but without documented legislative or financial step. This is a declaration without verifiable implementation.

10. Social policy & employment

Pensions

  1. Cap the retirement age at 65In progress#10.1

    Government promised to cap retirement age at 65. Pension reform bill approved by government in July 2026 and sent to Parliament, but the age cap is missing from it. Minister Juchelka stated it will be addressed in the second wave of pension changes from January 2028, not from 2027. Legislative process is underway, but delayed.

  2. Restore a fair indexation formulaIn progress#10.2

    Government plans to restore fair valuation formula – return to indexing by inflation and half of real wage growth instead of one-third. The proposal passed the government in July 2026, but represents only the first step. Implementation planned from January 2028, and in July 2026 was excluded from the first amendment. Minister Juchelka mentioned processing in one package during next year.

  3. Introduce age-based indexation from 80Partially fulfilled#10.3

    Government approved an amendment with age-based indexing from age 80 (500 CZK at ages 80, 85, 90, 95), which passed Parliament. It was approved in July 2026. This is only partial fulfillment, as it was originally considered to be introduced from 2027, but the government postpones and chooses more concrete additions in specific amounts. The original promise contained more general wording.

    Evidence: Novela zákona o důchodovém pojištění schválena vládou 20. 7. 2026

Families

  1. Raise the parental allowance to 400,000 CZKIn progress#10.4

    Government approved increase of parental allowance to 400,000 CZK in May 2026, Parliament approved it in June 2026. The regulation is under review (expected to take effect from 1 January 2027 for newborns). This is partial fulfillment – the increase applies only to children born from 1 January 2027, not families already receiving the allowance.

  2. Restore child benefits & pre-school reliefIn progress#10.5

    Restoring child allowances and kindergarten fees is part of government plans to revise the "super-benefit", but no specific law has been approved yet. In the first amendments to social benefits, a reassessment of the super-benefit and separation of child allowances were addressed. Parliament inserted amendments to the super-benefit, but the return of original child allowances has not yet been legislatively completed.

Benefits & services

  1. Revise the 'super-benefit', carve out child benefitsIn progress#10.6

    Revision of super-benefit and separation of child allowances is in process. Parliament inserted amendments to social benefits (new territorial details for housing support, expanded vulnerable groups). But complete separation of child allowances from super-benefit has not yet completed the legislative process. Legislation is underway, but the process is not finished.

  2. New social-services act & funding modelDeclared only#10.7

    Government declared support for social services (signature of mental health declaration in May 2026), Minister Juchelka mentioned that work is ongoing on changes in social services. However, a law on social services with new financing has not yet been approved. This is only a declared intention without specific legislative action.

  3. Material support for informal carersNot started#10.8

    Material security for informal caregivers is not documented by any specific government action. There is no mention of a legislative proposal or declared intention in the search materials. The government has not yet addressed this point.

Labour market

  1. Scrap mandatory reporting & checks for casual workNot started#10.9

    Abolition of mandatory reporting and inspections for part-time and casual work is not mentioned in available sources. No reports were found about a legislative proposal, government resolution, or ministerial declaration on this matter.

  2. Tighten oversight of staffing agenciesDeclared only#10.10

    Tightening control of employment agencies remains only at the level of declarations and discussions. Prime Minister Babiš mentioned criticism of unemployment benefits in June 2026, but no specific legislative action on tightening agency controls has taken place. The minister spoke of system review, but without a specific bill.

11. Healthcare

Prevention & primary care

  1. Expand group GP practicesIn progress#11.1

    Government supports shared practices for GPs as part of its program; health insurers have offered favorable conditions (up to 200,000 CZK/year) for team practices since 2026. Approx. 170 team practices for adults and 30 for pediatrics already exist in Czech Republic, but this is continuation from previous period. Government has not yet taken legislative or specific executive step to accelerate this development.

  2. Network of urgent dental clinicsIn progress#11.2

    New dental emergency system took effect from January 1, 2026, with responsibility on health insurers. Approximately 30 dental emergency clinics were established on core network, others use rotating dentist system. Network is smaller than before; some clinics closed. This is a reorganization of existing system, not development of full network; some regions report worsened access.

  3. Bonuses for attending preventive check-upsDeclared only#11.3

    Health insurers offer bonuses for prevention since 2026, including incentives for preventive checkups; patients can receive contributions for sports, dental hygiene, etc. Government has declared commitment to prevention and healthy lifestyle support. This is declaration without new legislation or specific regulation – it is continuation of existing insurer arrangements from previous period.

Access & quality

  1. National capacity & waiting-time monitoringPartially fulfilled#11.4

    Healthcare digitization and monitoring of waiting times was initiated before government took office (novelties are EZ cards, e-referral). Minister Vojtěch mentioned e-referral in June 2026 as important project bringing savings. System already operates; government only continues declaring progress in previously initiated initiative. Specific measurable results by August 2026 are not clearly documented.

  2. Implement national oncology & cardiovascular plansNot started#11.5

    No mention found in search results of implementation of National Oncology and Cardiovascular Plan by Babiš government. Minister Vojtěch mentions stabilization of health insurance and primary care support, not specific oncology or cardiovascular plans. Without documented evidence, it is presumed this item has not been initiated.

  3. Start a new university hospital in PragueNot started#11.6

    No evidence found that Babiš government has initiated construction of new teaching hospital in Prague. Materials from post-December 2025 do not mention this. Sources give recommendations for construction in Motol or other projects from previous administrations, not new initiative by current government.

  4. Secure drug availability & reserve stocksDeclared only#11.7

    Government committed in program statement to drug availability and initiated June 2026 discussions on increased healthcare funding (24 billion CZK additional). Declares support for drug availability; specific legislation on drug reserves not mentioned. This is declaration without measurable impact.

System & data

  1. Health digitalisation & data sharingPartially fulfilled#11.8

    Healthcare digitization continues from 2026 with e-referral and EZ card. These initiatives were launched earlier; government continues them. Minister mentions e-referral as project bringing savings; specific implementation milestones or completion unclear. System is operational but full rollout is ongoing.

  2. Reform public health insurance (insurer competition)Declared only#11.9

    Government committed in program statement to healthcare insurance reform aiming to create competitive environment among insurers. No specific legislative proposal or adoption documented. Minister commented on system stabilization, not promoting insurer competition. This is declaration without legislative step.

  3. Mental-health care reformDeclared only#11.10

    Government in May 2026 declared commitment to fighting addiction and decided to move drug policy agenda under health ministry, raising expert criticism. No specific mental health care reform has been legislatively adopted. This is organizational measure and declaration without measurable service reform.

12. Agriculture

Self-sufficiency & market

  1. Increase Czech food self-sufficiencyDeclared only#12.1

    Food self-sufficiency is part of the government programme statement approved on 5 January 2026. The government declares the goal of increasing self-sufficiency in field crops, vegetables, fruit, and animal production. Minister Šebestyán stated in June 2026 that the ministry is working on increasing self-sufficiency, but no specific legislative measures have been adopted yet. Only a position has been declared, without verifiable implementation.

  2. Food ombudsman & origin traceabilityFulfilled#12.2

    The ministry of agriculture declared the establishment of a food ombudsman. Minister Šebestyán listed this in June 2026 as a completed task. This measure was presented as part of efforts to increase transparency in food prices. Formal legal basis and details lack verifiable statutory anchoring; it is currently more of an institutional solution within ministry competence.

    Evidence: Potravinový ombudsman byl zřízen; ministerstvo zemědělství jej zavádí dle usnesení vlády z roku 2026

  3. Defend the market from cheap low-quality importsDeclared only#12.3

    The government commits in the programme statement to defending the market against cheap low-quality imports through setting competitiveness and food self-sufficiency. Specific legislative measures (e.g., quality standards, labelling, tariffs) have not yet been initiated or adopted. Minister declares intent but without verifiable legal action it is merely a statement.

Land, subsidies, animals

  1. Pre-emption right on farmland for active farmersIn progress#12.4

    The government has a law on pre-emption rights for agricultural land in its legislative plan. Minister Šebestyán confirmed preparation; the proposal is to be submitted in Q1 2027 and should come into force from 2028. As of the assessment period (August 2026), neither formal proposal nor legislative text exists, only discussion and preparation, which corresponds to 'in progress' status. The government discusses four variants but has not offered the public a final solution.

  2. Redirect subsidies to active productionPartially fulfilled#12.5

    The government approved the structure of subsidies for 2026 directed at animal production (2.4 billion CZK) with emphasis on domestic processing. The minister declared support for domestic food processing. However, the government simultaneously added hundreds of millions to programmes historically benefiting Agrofert (July 2026), which triggered criticism that the measure protects oligarchic interests more than small farmers. Fulfilment is thus only partial: yes for active domestic producers, but with conflict with the influence of large holdings.

    Evidence: Usnesení vlády č. 30. ledna 2026 a červenec 2026 – schválení přesunu peněz do živočišné výroby a domácího zpracování; dotační schéma 2026

  3. Scrap the current erosion-zone designationNot started#12.6

    The government has not yet initiated any measures to abolish the current definition of erosion zones. This is a technically complex and politically sensitive step requiring changes in delimitation standards. No mention of such an initiative was found in search sources.

  4. Raise penalties for animal cruelty & puppy millsIn progress#12.7

    Minister Šebestyán declared in April 2026 the preparation of legislative text on animal protection and a ban on puppy mills. In May 2026 media returned to the topic; the minister rejected 'misinformation' about the government's stance. The legislative process is underway (the minister stated submission of the text), but from April–May to August no law has been approved or promulgated.

13. Environment

Climate & energy

  1. Push for a major revision of the Green DealDeclared only#13.1

    Government opposes Green Deal and advocates its revision. First resolution (16 Dec 2025) rejected ETS2 implementation. Babiš declares position on revision, but specific legislative action at EU level not taken—so far only political statement and EU negotiations without achieved results.

  2. Reject the 2035 combustion-car banDeclared only#13.2

    Government declares rejection of internal combustion engine ban from 2035 and pushes this position in EU. Motoristé and SPD clearly protest the ban. No legislative action at domestic or EU level yet—only political declaration.

  3. No mandatory solar or gas-boiler bansDeclared only#13.3

    Government program declares it will not introduce mandatory photovoltaics or bans on gas boilers. Environment minister speaks of gas support, not bans. No legislative step—declaration of intent not to initiate these measures.

Water & landscape

  1. Speed up Nové Heřminovy, Vlachovice, Skalička reservoirsIn progress#13.4

    Government program promises to accelerate dams Nové Heřminovy, Vlachovice, and Skalička. Nové Heřminovy: construction scheduled Oct 2027 (per June 2024 source). Vlachovice: construction planned 2029 (Sept 2025). Skalička: technical study ongoing. Projects initiated earlier; government declares acceleration but no concrete legislative or executive steps to actually speed them up are publicly documented.

  2. Accelerate sewers & treatment plants in municipalitiesIn progress#13.5

    Program promises to accelerate construction of sewers and WWTPs, especially in municipalities. As part of the Vlachovice project, nine villages are being sewered (permit projects due mid-2024, construction 2026–2033). No specific national-level legislative act, but projects in preparation. Awaiting permits and funding.

  3. Revise the soil-erosion decreeDeclared only#13.6

    Government program promises fundamental revision of the erosion regulation and support for adaptation measures. No specific legislative proposal or adopted amendment documented. Declaration of intent without a legislatively actionable step.

Waste

  1. Deposit return only if benefit is provenDeclared only#13.7

    Program declares: PET bottle and can deposits only if proven ecological benefit and without disrupting sorting. No legislative step or process initiated; declaration of stricter approach to deposits than previous (Fiala) government.

  2. Support waste-to-energy facilitiesDeclared only#13.8

    Program promises support for waste-to-energy facilities and advocates preventing emissions permit extension to them. No legislative act at domestic level; again declaration of position and EU advocacy without concrete result to date.

14. Culture

People & heritage

  1. Significantly raise cultural-sector payPartially fulfilled#14.1

    Government approved 9% salary increase for cultural workers from April 1, 2026 (plus 1% above-tariff for state institutions). Minister Klempíř pushed for larger increases (4,000 CZK), but compromise was lower. Increase covers only part of the pledge for significant raises and does not follow up on 2017 commitment to align with education sector.

    Evidence: Nařízení vlády č. 16/2026 Sb. (únor 2026), schváleno 22.1.2026

  2. Multi-year funding plan for heritageDeclared only#14.2

    Government program declaration promises creation of multi-year financial plan for heritage restoration. Government has declared intent but concrete plan (legislation, funding level, timeline) has not been adopted. NPÚ plans projects (e.g., Invalidovna for 2 billion CZK) but awaits culture ministry approval.

  3. Finish key cultural venues (ND, Janáček centre, etc.)Declared only#14.3

    Program declaration includes promises to complete National Theatre New Stage and Janáček Centre in Brno; Vltava Philharmonic mentioned without specific commitment. Government declared these projects but no concrete legislative or financial steps were taken to accelerate them. These are commitments government formally inherited (not created).

Media & access

  1. Abolish public-media licence feesNot started#14.4

    Program declaration states government will abolish license fees and transfer public media to state budget (i.e., closer to political control). However, no evidence of legislative process or adoption of specific bill. Government merely declared stance without implementation.

  2. Audit ČT & ČRo finances via the SAONot started#14.5

    No mention in available sources of government step to introduce Supreme Audit Office control over ČT and ČRo financial management. Item in program declaration but without verifiable implementation.

  3. Free state museum/gallery entry for selected groupsNot started#14.6

    No mention in available sources of specific proposal or adoption of measure introducing free admission to state museums and galleries for selected groups. Program point without verifiable implementation.

15. Housing & regional development

Building law & housing

  1. New building act; housing as a public interestIn progress#15.1

    Government approved the building law proposal on December 16, 2025 (second day in office), introducing central building administration and designating multi-family housing as a public interest. Parliament approved it on July 10, 2026. Now awaiting Senate review and presidential signature to enter into force.

  2. Digitalise building permitsPartially fulfilled#15.2

    Building process digitization is underway but troubled: previous IT system not being further developed, government announces new public tender. Transitional regime (bypass) established until new system launch. Full functionality expected only from January 1, 2028, i.e., two years behind schedule.

  3. Mortgage support for young families & key workersDeclared only#15.3

    State mortgage support for young families has not yet been implemented. Government declares continued support but specific parameters not yet developed. Planned changes to start in 2028 (preferential tax deductions). Opposition critics call it 'empty proclamation'.

  4. Support cooperative & rental housingPartially fulfilled#15.4

    Support for cooperative housing was implemented: tax deduction on cooperative share installments effective from 2026. Projects (Brno Kamenny vrch with 353 units, Opava, Brumov-Bylnice) are running and developing. However, government did not launch transfer of state land to municipalities by planned deadline (complications with EC). Cannot confirm full compliance without sufficient evidence of legislative step by Babiš government.

  5. Support student-dormitory constructionNot started#15.5

    No verifiable steps by Babiš government (from December 15, 2025) specifically targeting student dormitory construction were found in searched sources. While a legitimate public interest, no specific program or legislative proposal has been launched yet.

Regions & EU funds

  1. Prepare fund drawdown for 2028+Not started#15.6

    (unmeasurable)

    The commitment is formulated too vaguely ('prepare fund absorption for period 2028+') without measurable criteria or specific target. Fulfillment cannot be objectively determined.

  2. Coal-region transformation actNot started#15.7

    No specific legislative proposal from Babiš government (from December 15, 2025) on coal region transformation was found in searched materials. While existing support programs exist (e.g., Integrated Regional Operational Program), no new law by this government has been launched yet.

16. Sport, prevention & health

Activity & infrastructure

  1. Network of low-barrier public sports groundsIn progress#16.1

    Government allocated CZK 800 million for sport support in the budget (March 2026). NSA announced a tender for standardized sports infrastructure in 2026, and FIFA Arena project targets 100 public pitches by year-end 2026. Without new legislation on 'low-threshold play areas network', these are continuations of previous governments' programs.

  2. Increase investment in sports facilitiesIn progress#16.2

    Government approved Sport Action Plan 2026 (July 2025), reflecting the Sports Support Act. NSA continues sports infrastructure grant programs (call 19/2026, NSA-supported projects reach tens of millions CZK). This is program continuity, though budget sports allocation increased. However, no separate legislative proposal specifically targeting 'increased investment in renewal' is evident.

  3. 'Coaches into schools' programmesDeclared only#16.3

    February 2026 article mentions plans for 'Coaches to Schools' program in Příbram. However, the program is not based on a new Babiš government initiative—it is a continuation of previous-period activities. NSA and ministries support it within existing programs, but without new legislation or special government action initiated after 15 December 2025.

Legislation & funding

  1. National sport strategy 2026–2030In progress#16.4

    NSA is preparing new Sport and Movement Strategy 2030 (discussion 30 September 2025). Agency is working on State Sports Policy Plan for 2026–2030, to be finalized in 2025. This is continuation of a legislative process initiated earlier, whose finalization falls within Babiš government's term. Without documented approval, 'fulfilled' status cannot be assigned.

  2. New comprehensive sport actIn progress#16.5

    Minister Šťastný initiates amendments to the Sports Support Act (April–June 2026). Proposal for new comprehensive Sports Act has been under preparation since 2024, addressing professional athletes' status, State Sports Fund establishment, match-fixing prevention, and potential independent sports ministry. Final version to be addressed in September 2026. Legislative process is initiated but in preparation phase, not approval.

  3. Review of the National Sports AgencyDeclared only#16.6

    Minister Šťastný is promoting NSA reform, including abolition of the supervisory board, introduction of National Sports Register (replacing the registry), and transformation of National Arbitration Court into an arbitration commission (April–June 2026). These are ministerial proposals without approved legislation to date. They represent statements and declarations of intent, not implemented revision.

17. Science, research & innovation

Funding & quality

  1. Significantly raise R&D spendingIn progress#17.1

    Government promises increase in spending and proposes it in budget draft, but opposition criticism points to insufficient funding in practice. No concrete legislative measures to increase spending are mentioned—budget is still under discussion. Cannot be marked as fulfilled without concrete legal act.

  2. Revise the M2017+ research-evaluation systemBroken / abandoned#17.2

    Government conducted revision, but in opposite direction—cancelled M2017+ methodology. The cancellation was adopted BEFORE Babiš government took office (18 June 2025), so it is not its achievement. Currently government works on new methodology but without clear direction.

    Evidence: Usnesení vlády ze dne 18. června 2025 č. 458

  3. Make R&D tax deductions more attractiveDeclared only#17.3

    Government promises to make tax deductions more attractive in its program statement, but no concrete step (legislation, government draft) has been launched yet. Only declaration without legislative preparation so far.

Governance & talent

  1. Abolish science-minister post; strengthen the councilIn progress#17.4

    Government declares intention to abolish position of science minister (no one appointed) and strengthen Council of Government. Council already operates under first deputy's leadership (Karel Havlíček). Implementation is organizational rather than fixed by law.

  2. Ease arrival of foreign researchers & PhD studentsDeclared only#17.5

    Government promises to ease access for foreign scientists in its program statement (removing administrative barriers, recognizing qualifications). Specific legislative steps have not yet been launched. Only declaration so far.

18. Digitalisation

Cutting red tape

  1. 'Once and done' principleDeclared only#18.1

    The government approved a management system for digitalization and declared the 'once only' principle as a fundamental rule. However, there is no evidence that the government has taken legislative or executive steps to specifically implement this principle in practice; it remains a declaration in the Digital Česko 2.0 program document.

  2. Complete the right to digital servicesIn progress#18.2

    The government set a goal to digitalize all public services within one year (by March 2027). It approved a project management system with clear milestones and responsible managers. However, it is clear that the bulk of work is still ahead—only about 1,950 out of 5,755 services are digitalized so far. This is neither legislative nor operational fulfillment, but an active process with a set deadline.

Gateway, data & AI

  1. Single digital gateway (web & mobile, shared login)In progress#18.3

    The Single Digital Gateway (SDG) is a European project managed by MPO and coordinated by DIA. The government approved a material in May 2026 clarifying the implementation approach. However, the process is long-term—it involves connecting eGovernment systems across the EU with an ambitious schedule. The eDoklady mobile app is already running (660,000+ registered users), but a unified digital gateway in the sense of centralized access to web and mobile services with unified login is not yet fully implemented.

  2. Connected data ecosystem with open APIsIn progress#18.4

    An integrated data ecosystem is one of the government's priorities—it approved a 'system for managing strategic programs and projects' aimed at data sharing. DIA coordinates the implementation of the digital services law, including connecting agendas through basic registers. However, full operational interoperability is still being built; the Supreme Audit Office criticizes that data are not effectively shared and many services are merely 'digitized on paper.'

  3. Safe, ethical AI use in public administrationDeclared only#18.5

    The government approved the Implementation of the AI Act (May 2025, still under the previous government), which the new government continues to implement. In June 2026, government commissioner Klučka mentioned AI as a priority. DIA is preparing a guide for ethical and responsible use of AI, NÚKIB has published materials. However, in practice, these are still only declarations, strategies, and preparatory documents without specific legislation or established practice in government offices.

  4. Audit state IT; fight vendor lock-inDeclared only#18.6

    The government declared in digitalization materials the goal of 'audit of state IT' and fighting vendor lock-in, specifically in the context of strategic project management. It created the position of government commissioner for digitalization. However, specific audits or legislative measures against vendor lock-in have not yet been launched; this remains a statement of intent without operational steps.
