On 29 April, the German cabinet approved the 2027 federal budget key figures and the 2026–2030 financial plan, setting a 28 % increase in defense spending to about 106 billion euros and earmarking 119 billion euros for investment in infrastructure, growth and security. It also adopted a package of digital police laws that expand electronic investigative powers for law‑enforcement and anti‑terrorism agencies, and enacted a national implementation law for the EU Cyber‑Resilience Regulation. Other measures include a nitrogen‑monitoring amendment, a 4.24 % rise in the statutory pension value effective 1 July, and a stabilization law for health‑insurance contributions aimed at closing a projected shortfall. The package was passed unanimously.
