The ministry announced the abolition of the book lamination regulation

Significant changes are anticipated in Hungary's book market and cultural support, as stated by Zoltán Tarr. The Ministry responsible for Social Relations and Culture hinted at potential amendments to existing regulations, particularly concerning the sale of LGBTQ-themed books to minors. Additionally, a proposal to abolish fixed book pricing is being prepared. The ministry is also reviewing the operations of various cultural institutions to enhance transparency in public fund usage. A comprehensive reform of the National Cultural Fund is planned for 2027, focusing on strengthening independent decision-making and reducing ministerial powers. Recent discussions arose regarding the retention of cultural support from the NER era in the 2027 budget.
