[fse-esf] National Mobilisation in Hungary against the law on Health Insurance

[Simó Endre]

   Civic resistence against the law of privatisation of the Hungarian Health Insurance System has been launched  on the Saturday National Meeting in Budapest organized by the Hungarian Social Forum-Social Roundtable with the participation of more than fifty civic organisations, trade unions, among them two TU Confederations, religious communities, leftwing and democratic political parties. The meeting was held in the TU of the Healthy Workers, after two bannings in other sites, presumibly due to the political pressure of the government: firstly the Hospital of Railway Workers has withdrawn the authorisation to hold the meeting in its conference room, after also Kossuth Klub has banned our conference. Both have argued telling that the meeting was a  â01Epoliticalâ01D one. The National Conference has unanimously decided to support a referendum for the nullification of the law, in case the law enter in force. (The president of the Republic has denied to sign the law in question.) In order to organize the referendum, and decide the next steps to be done, a Social Coordinating Committee has been formed with all the representatives wanting to cooperate for the withdrawal of the law. The body is embracing the most various social forces, communists, leftwing independents, socialists, democrats, greens, and also rightwing opposition with the law. The Coordinating Committee has to put in execution the decisions of the National Conference, that is to mobilize the Hungarian Society for achieving the withdrawal of the law.
