Green parliamentary group leader Katrin Göring-Eckardt calls on the federal government to be more creative in dealing with schools in order to enable face-to-face teaching again in the Corona crisis.

“We have large rooms that are currently empty.

Theaters, museums, churches, cinemas.

Why don't we make sure that maybe a third of the class is there? ”, Said Göring-Eckardt“ Bild ”on Tuesday.

In addition, the Green politicians called for a uniform perspective before the federal-state consultations on Wednesday, which could then be applied depending on the various indicators that have different effects.

The President of the Federal Constitutional Court, Stephan Harbarth, emphasized the role of parliaments in the decisions to combat the corona pandemic.

"The more important the legal interests concerned, the more the legislator is called to make a decision," said Harbarth of the Düsseldorf "Rheinische Post" (Wednesday).

“The main decisions must be made by parliament.” In the early stages, crises are the hour of the executive - that is, of the federal and state governments, said Harbarth.

But from a certain point in time "the legislature has to give the executive more precise instructions".
