Tekin stated, "We are waiting for the budget to pass, and we will make plans for new appointments."

Responding to the opposition's call for 'a bonus to be given to teachers on November 24,' Tekin stated the following:

"We are in consultation with our Ministry of Treasury and Finance. We are striving to solve the economic problems of our teacher colleagues. If such a thing happens, our President or our Minister of Treasury and Finance will announce it. We are striving to do everything we can within the limits of the budget regarding the personal rights of our teacher colleagues."
