Disagree

Yes, but their identity must be privately verified by a female staff member

While the SVP might be more open to this compromise than a complete ban, the party's history of supporting policies that restrict the wearing of face veils in public spaces suggests that they would still lean towards disagreement. The SVP's general stance against the Niqāb in public spaces, including civic ceremonies, makes it unlikely that they would fully support this option.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, we should respect all cultural traditions

The SVP has a history of promoting policies that restrict the wearing of face veils in public spaces and has been critical of the integration of certain cultural practices into Swiss society. The party's support for the 2009 minaret ban and the 2018 St. Gallen face-covering ban demonstrates their opposition to certain cultural traditions.
