Houses, cemeteries and plots of land that have been abandoned, mainly due to the post-war displacement of German residents in the former Sudetenland, will belong to the state from January, the Ombudsman's Office announced on its website on Monday. The ten-year period during which the displaced owners could request that their property be returned to them will expire at the end of this year.
In 2014, the rules regarding abandoned real estate changed, with ownership being transferred from local governments to the state. However, a ten-year grace period was instated, before which the property could not be considered truly abandoned.

The Environment Ministry is planning to introduce mandatory separate textile waste collection from 2025, with the associated costs to be paid in part by the manufacturers of the material. The Environment Minister Petr Hladík announced at a press conference on Monday that the aim is to increase the amount of textile waste that is reused or recycled. At the moment, separate textile waste collection is not compulsory and so a lot of discarded clothing that could be reused or recycled ends up in landfill, the minister said.

Health Minister Vlastimil Válek will meet with doctors and health insurance company heads on Monday to discuss the technical details of a salary hike for doctors in Czech hospitals, which are now running in crisis mode to protest against low pay. Although Prime Minister Petr Fiala last week promised to allocate an extra 9.8 billion crowns to hospitals, questions have arisen as to how the increased funds from insurance payments would translate into doctors' salaries. Doctors say they will not call off the protests until a mechanism has been found to ensure their demands are met.
