Erfurt (dpa / th) - Thuringia's Environment Minister Anja Siegesmund has spoken out against further restrictions for families with children in the corona pandemic.

Your difficult situation in lockdown should not be exacerbated by additional bans such as the closure of playgrounds like in Jena, said the Green politician on Thursday in Erfurt.

Siegesmund also spoke out against restrictions on emergency childcare.

The childcare offers must be maintained and not only be possible, as in the spring, for children of parents from certain professional groups.

Thuringia should spare itself a new debate about the systemic relevance of certain professions, so Siegesmund.

However, she appeals to parents to only use emergency care for their children “if there is no other way”.

In addition, the federal government is obliged to allow employees to take paid vacation if childcare cannot otherwise be guaranteed.
