The new family support measures are popular!

The majority of Hungarian families agree with the government's new family policy measures, said dr. Zsófia Koncz at a joint press conference of the Ministry of Culture and Innovation and KINCS, where she and Tünde Fűrész, the president of the institute, talked about the reception of the new family support measures.
