Berlin (dpa) - The Hessian Prime Minister Volker Bouffier (CDU) has spoken out against legal regulations for more home offices to reduce contacts in the corona pandemic.

There is still air on the subject, but he does not believe in any legal regulations, he said on Friday in an online press conference before the CDU party congress.

Even if you wanted to say goodbye quickly, weeks would go by.

In addition, there are a number of areas in which one cannot work from home.

Bouffier advocated again massively promoting more opportunities to work from home, for example in the service sector.

When asked why the Prime Ministers are often slower than the Chancellery in connection with deliberations on new measures, Bouffier replied: "It's not about slower or faster."

The countries are the closest because they have to implement all measures and have very intensive experience.

For example, the federal government has no kindergartens, schools and hospitals.

"Then of course they have a completely different view of things than when they talk about them in general."

Bouffier said: "There is no race between the Chancellery and the Prime Minister."

Rather, there are very different governments in the countries and also different infection situations.

"In the end, that is always a consideration and ultimately a compromise."

According to government spokesman Steffen Seibert, the federal and state governments want to discuss how to proceed this Tuesday.

The next slot was originally scheduled for January 25th.
