According to Hesse's Prime Minister Volker Bouffier (CDU), it is still necessary for the states to be able to order certain measures in the fight against the corona pandemic.
“These include, for example, the tests in schools and the requirement to wear a mask,” he announced after the annual conference with his colleagues in Königswinter, North Rhine-Westphalia.
Wiesbaden / Königswinter - The state chiefs continued to demand a nationwide uniform legal framework to secure corona protective measures.
"For this we need a legal basis beyond November 25th," said Bouffier.
The Prime Ministers had decided unanimously.
"We now hope that the German Bundestag creates the conditions for this," added Bouffier.
Experience shows that the protective measures help to counteract the increase in infections.
Federal Health Minister Jens Spahn (CDU) had spoken out in favor of not continuing the determination of an epidemic situation of national importance beyond November 25th.
The determination of an epidemic situation of national scope is the basis for ordinances and central corona measures in Germany.
It is true that the states also have the option of maintaining such measures through resolutions of their state parliaments.
On the sidelines of the conference, however, several prime ministers warned of a “patchwork quilt” and the associated lack of acceptance.
