Dispute in the coalition over childcare benefits: who came up with 2028?

The Social Democrats, who drafted the family package, intend to increase childcare benefits starting in 2028. However, neither the opposition, experts, nor representatives of the ruling party itself understand such a delay. For the coalition partners, this projected date came as entirely news. Moreover, the ministry had previously informed the LRT.lt portal that benefits will not be recalculated for those who have children before 2028.
