In the dispute over the future of the district clinic, the Wolfratshauser CSU shoots sharply.
CSU district leader Thomas Holz does not want to speak a word of power.
Wolfratshausen
- The discussion about future health care in the Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen district, especially the future of the district clinic, is controversial, not least in CSU circles. Above all, the local branches Wolfratshausen and Geretsried are vehemently resisting a possible privatization of the hospital. CSU district chairman Thomas Holz does not want to comment on the sharp attacks that his party friends from Loisachstadt are riding against District Administrator Josef Niedermaier (FW). However, he takes the position that with a view to the weal and woe of the district clinic, all, mind you, all options must be examined.
“We reject participation by a private investor in whatever form,” stated the chairman of the Geretsried CSU, Martin Huber.
Otherwise the district would lose “massive” influence on what is happening behind the scenes at the facility on Moosbauerweg.
His official colleague in Wolfratshausen, Claudia Drexl-Weile, publishes open letters and press releases on the controversial topic almost every day.
Tenor: The facility on Moosbauerweg must remain in municipal ownership.
Currently, she and her deputy, Wolfratshauser Vice-Mayor Günther Eibl, accuse District Administrator Niedermaier of operating with wrong numbers or "keeping silent" the correct ones (we reported).
No thinking bans and certainly no "muzzle"
CSU Kreischef Holz, Mayor of Kochel am See and Vice District Administrator, sees no reason to call on the eloquent Wolfratshauser Christian Socials for moderation. "The local associations are very familiar with their respective regions and are rightly self-confident," says Holz. Incidentally, a “big people's party” like the CSU cannot be divided up just because the opinions of individual members or local associations differ “in nuances”. The 45-year-old emphasizes that there is no compulsory parliamentary group, no thinking bans and certainly no “muzzle”.
Holz expressly welcomes the path that the district politicians have recently taken in terms of health care. At the suggestion of Niedermaier, a “discussion moratorium” preceded the resolutions of the district council to which he belongs. Public information events are also planned. "Honestly" must now be spoken to the sovereign, on the basis of "the correct numbers", says the Kochler mayor. It was more than annoying that an opinion for the press "that is not an opinion" was punctured. In general, "a lot of false reports" were circulated. Holz confirms a statement by District Administrator Niedermaier, also chairman of the supervisory board of Kreisklinik gGmbH: "It's about maintaining the district clinic." The Kochler town hall chief attaches importance to the statement:"There is no one in the south of the district who advocates privatization."
I am now 45 years old and only know one district of Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen. "
Thomas Holz, CSU district chairman, with a view to the North-South debate that has flared up
But since the decisions to be made could have long-term and far-reaching consequences, it is "absolutely right that we look at all options". He has "complete understanding" for those who insist on keeping the clinic in municipal ownership. But categorically ruling out a possible cooperation with a private hospital operator like Asklepios before an analysis is not expedient. "It's about the best possible health care for our citizens," explains Holz in an interview with our newspaper. Against this background, all constellations must be explored. He is in line with the member of the state parliament and spokesman for the CSU parliamentary group in the district council, Martin Bachhuber. Both the Wolfratshauser Hospital and the Asklepios City Clinic in Bad Tölz are important:“We need the location in Bad Tölz just as much as the one in Wolfratshausen,” said Bachhuber in the most recent meeting of the district council.
What wood absolutely does not want: The long-filled trenches in the district to be dug again.
The qualified lawyer explains that he “has nothing to gain from the North-South debate that has flared up”.
"I am now 45 years old and only know one district of Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen." This sentence is not a power word.
But one could interpret it as a greeting to his party friends on Isar and Loisach.
