Federal Council initiates consultation on relief package 27

29.01.2025

During its meeting on 29 January 2025, the Federal Council adopted the consultation draft for relief package 27 (RP27). The proposal is intended to reduce the burden on the federal budget by between CHF 2.7 and 3.6 billion from 2027 onwards and bring it back into balance. More than half of the 59 measures proposed overall require a legislative amendment. Despite the relief package, federal expenditure will continue to grow by more than 2% per year in the medium term. The consultation will run until 5 May 2025.

The press release is available in German, French, and Italian.
