2021-10-25T11:13:34.981Z


Regardless of the significantly increasing number of corona infections, the members of the state parliament will move closer together at the constituent session of parliament than before the parliamentary summer break. The members of the now six parliamentary groups would sit in the regular rows of chairs. There will be no additional tables behind, as they were customary until June to maintain the distance, said the parliamentary manager of the SPD parliamentary group, Jochen Schulte, on Monday in Schwerin.


Regardless of the significantly increasing number of corona infections, the members of the state parliament will move closer together at the constituent session of parliament than before the parliamentary summer break.

The members of the now six parliamentary groups would sit in the regular rows of chairs.

There will be no additional tables behind, as they were customary until June to maintain the distance, said the parliamentary manager of the SPD parliamentary group, Jochen Schulte, on Monday in Schwerin.

Schwerin - The corresponding hygiene concept was submitted to the responsible health department in Schwerin and confirmed by them.

“We discussed it for a long time in the council of elders,” admitted Schulte.

However, the right to freely exercise mandates is a valuable asset and restrictions such as the application of the 2G or 3G rules are not possible.

It is the responsibility of the parliamentary groups to ensure the highest possible level of protection against infection.

"You can only appeal to the common sense of all members of parliament to use the opportunities that exist," said Schulte.

There is no mask requirement, but he assumes that some MPs will voluntarily wear mouth and nose protection.

The chairman of the Bundestag election review committee, Patrick Sensburg (CDU), sees “objective violations of the electoral law” in the election to the Berlin House of Representatives on September 26th.

"The results were sometimes so tight that the violations could have been relevant to the mandate," he told the "Heilbronner Voice" (Thursday).

“But even in the federal election we have to assess exactly what happened in Berlin.

For the first time, the parliament has 79 members instead of the previous 71.

The reason for this are so-called overhang and compensation mandates.

According to Schulte, additional seats were built into the rows and the corridors between the parliamentary groups were removed except for one.

The seating arrangements for the constituent session are based on the Bundestag.

Accordingly, in the semicircle of the plenary hall, the SPD follows on the left, then the Greens, CDU, FDP and AfD.
