At the government meeting on Tuesday, there could be a crash between the coalition partners CSU and Free Voters.

The reason is the federal emergency brake.

The news ticker for Bavaria.

  • On Tuesday at 11.30 a.m., Ministers Herrmann, Holetschek and Piazolo will present the results of the government meeting at a press conference.

  • The incidence figures have fallen slightly in Bavaria - the Free State is now in fourth place in Germany.

  • This news ticker is updated regularly.

Munich

- It is day one after the CDU board decision to make Armin Laschet the Union's candidate for chancellor.

But Markus Söder * (CSU) doesn't have much time to lick the wounds.

As early as 9 a.m. he will have to chair the weekly meeting of the Bavarian state government in Munich.

Because there is still the Corona * issue that he has to take care of.

It doesn't get any easier for the CSU boss.

The coalition partner, the free voters, go on a confrontational course even before the meeting.

Corona in Bavaria: Free voters oppose the federal emergency brake

On Monday (April 19), Markus Söder emphasized once again that in addition to the chancellor question, the corona question also had to be resolved. "Unfortunately, the corona numbers are running away from us." The patient numbers in the intensive care units would continue to rise, according to Söder. “Agreeing on the emergency brake at federal level is a very important step.” On Wednesday, the Bundestag * will deal with the planned changes to the rules. On Thursday, the Federal Council * will vote on the change in the law. Bavaria could abstain from this vote. The reason for this could be the free voters, according to the

.

Even before the cabinet meeting on Tuesday, the coalition partner announced that they did not want to grant the federal government any further powers.

That will be announced in the meeting, writes the

BR

.

Similar to what Christian Lindner had already announced for the FDP, FW boss Hubert Aiwanger also wants to file a constitutional complaint when the federal emergency brake is introduced and possibly even sue.

Coronavirus in Bavaria: Incidence figures have fallen slightly

Another point of contention among the coalition partners could be the planned introduction of model regions. From next week at the earliest, individual cities in Bavaria should serve as guinea pigs. It should be tested how openings and loosening are possible if they are accompanied by strict security measures such as intensive test concepts and targeted contact tracking. But due to the still high number of infections *, the project will probably be postponed for an indefinite period of time. For the FDP and the Free Voters another point of criticism of the federal emergency brake. Because there are no test-based opening concepts and no space for model projects.

According to the RKI, the corona numbers fell a little on Tuesday.

The 7-day incidence for the whole of Bavaria is 185.3 (previous day: 187.3).

The national average, on the other hand, is given by the RKI as 162.4.

The Free State slips into fourth place and is now just behind Saxony-Anhalt with 185.7.

In the past 24 hours, 1,554 people were newly infected with the coronavirus and 33 people died as a result of Covid 19 disease.

The Tirschenreuth district has the lowest incidence value in Bavaria at 59.7.

The front runner is the district of Kronach with 359.6.
