The government is closing the public money-burning Food Rescue Center

The Hungarian government is shutting down the Food Rescue Center due to serious deficiencies identified by the State Audit Office. Minister Bóna Szabolcs announced that the center failed to fulfill its legal food rescue duties since its establishment in 2022. Significant funds were spent on IT development and operations without proper justification. The government aims to prevent further misuse of public funds and will officially terminate the center through legislative changes. Bóna emphasized the importance of supporting civil organizations in food rescue efforts moving forward, focusing on actual performance rather than appearances.
