Düsseldorf (dpa / lnw) - North Rhine-Westphalia Interior Minister Herbert Reul (CDU) has also defended an order for masks from the van Laack company.
In May, it was a matter of buying protective items for the employees from the police as quickly as possible, Reul said on Wednesday in the state parliament in Düsseldorf.
The best framework agreements are of no use when supply chains are interrupted.
As it turned out, cloth masks would also be an option in everyday police life for many operations.
The State Office for Central Police Services in North Rhine-Westphalia had received seven offers, of which van Laack convinced.
However, Reul did not want to comment on the award of masks in November, referring to the ongoing proceedings at the award chamber.
According to earlier information, the Interior Ministry has ordered 1.25 million masks each time for the police from the company.
