蔣萬安赴行政院會轟取消補助學校電費！避談中國製機械狗、拆除公館圓環
Newtalk新聞 由於明年度地方統籌分配款大幅增加，行政院取消對於學校的水電費補助。對此，台北市長蔣萬安今（28）日表示，他不能接受行政院透過擴張解釋，很可能不公平分配的做法。他並批，行政院有沒有想過多少地方付不出電費，會出現許多無預期受害者。不過，針對中國製機械狗，以及拆除公館圓環等議題，他並未回應。 行政院今上午召開院會，蔣萬安於會前受訪表示，他不只是為台北市，也為各地方政府發聲，一般性補助款跟計畫性補助款不同，一直有個公正、公開的公式。他批，行政院透過擴張解釋，對地方政府補助總額不變的情形下，中央政府可以調整對各縣市政府的補助金額，不就回到前瞻計畫特別預算，遭外界批評重綠輕藍的做法。 「我不能接受行政院透過擴張解釋，很可能不公平分配的做法。」蔣萬安說，前幾年行政院風風火火推動班班有冷氣，但現在教育部取消對各級學校的電費補助。他質疑，政院有沒有想過有多少地方政府的財政狀況付不出這些電費，把一般性補助款變成地方政府不確定的收入，會出現許多無預期受害者，尤其是教育、社會福利與基礎設施。 蔣萬安發言完畢後即離開，面對媒體關心的中國製機械狗，以及拆除公館圓環等議題，並未回應。 行政院發言人李慧芝日前指出，因為「新版財劃法」，明年度各地方政府獲得的統籌分配稅款，總數將會大幅增加4,165億元，各地方政府已有充足的財源支應辦理教育等事項，對於轄區內學校的水電費補助，也應該回歸到各縣市政府，可以用增加的中央統籌分配稅款來支應。延伸閱讀：李洋接運動部長遭酸資歷淺！ 前綠委曝力挺原因開嗆：你行你來 對李洋接運動部長有期許！石明謹與劉柏君點出「4大問題」 盼注入改革動力北市引「中國機器狗」屠城？學者揭嚴重後果：國安、軍事、社會全面陷落AI行動內閣2.0 調整隊形 政院：共有16位閣員調整異動中國機械狗屠城？！北市忽略國安成滲透破口 林楚茵痛批「拿錢亂花」快訊》證實接運動部首任部長 李洋：我不會單打獨鬥
