Delay of Bund-Länder Summit on Relief Package - Delay in German-Lander Summit's Discharge Package Schedule
Oopsie! It seems that quite a mix-up occurred regarding the meeting with Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) to discuss the much-anticipated economic aid package. Sorry to burst your bubbles, folks, but the originally scheduled date, June 18th, is kaput! The spokesperson from the Saxon State Chancellery confirmed the unfortunate news. Fret not, though, a new date will be set soon after discussing things with the Federal Chancellor.
In a twist of events (and we all love some exciting drama, don't we?), yesterday, Saxony's Minister President, Michael Kretschmer (CDU), and Lower Saxony's Minister President, Olaf Lies (SPD), announced a meeting with Chancellor Merz on June 18th. This planned powwow was the outcome of a meeting among the 16 state heads in Berlin. Alas, the Federal Chancellor's attendance was called off due to a trip to the US.
If you're wondering about the differences over tax exemptions, the federal and state governments are still keen on speeding up relief measures for the economy and that multi-billion-euro investment plan. A spokesperson from the Lower Saxony government expressed reservations regarding a decision by mid-July in the Bundesrat, stating, "That's quite ambitious." The next Bundesrat plenary session before the summer break is slated for July 11th, just so you know.
