The state administration office has expanded its disciplinary proceedings against the mayor of Halle, Bernd Wiegand (non-party), who has been suspended for several months.
The state administration office announced on Thursday that it was about allegations of violating collective bargaining and budgetary regulations.
Halle - The allegations in connection with a personnel matter resulted from an audit by the State Audit Office in 2015. They were only determined after the relevant files were submitted by the city of Halle this year.

The State Administration Office is also examining Wiegand's application to lift his temporary dismissal.
The knowledge gained from the interrogations of witnesses as well as the now extensive allegations should also be included, it said.
Wiegand has been suspended from his official duties for several months because of a vaccination affair.
The trigger was his early vaccination against the established sequence of vaccinations and the handling of vaccine residues in the vaccination centers at the beginning of the year.
In addition to disciplinary proceedings, public prosecutor's investigations are ongoing against Wiegand.
