The black and yellow North Rhine-Westphalian state government wants to approve the draft amendment of the Berlin traffic light parties to the Infection Protection Act in the Federal Council on Friday.
This was announced by Prime Minister Hendrik Wüst (CDU) on Thursday in the “Current Hour” of the WDR.
The national coalition had agreed to approve the law.
Düsseldorf - After the federal-state talks in Berlin, Wüst initially said that he wanted to seek a vote in the NRW state government in the light of the results and decisions of the day.
The Bundestag passed the new corona regulations presented by the SPD, Greens and FDP on Thursday.
On Wednesday, Wüst, in a letter to the likely future Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD), described the law as “not capable of approval” in the Federal Council.
Thus Wüst had received the criticism of his NRW coalition partner FDP.

The Union-led countries continued to consider a "sufficient toolkit" to be necessary in the fight against Corona, said Wüst, who is currently also chairman of the Prime Minister's Conference.
