Hanover (dpa) - Lower Saxony's Prime Minister Stephan Weil considers it unnecessary to transfer more rights than before to the federal government to standardize the corona rules.

"I can currently not see how more legal federal competencies should lead to a better containment of the pandemic - and that is what we must all be about," said the SPD politician on Thursday.

"In the meantime, the impression arises that the Union series should be closed through federal legislation."

The parliamentary group of CDU and CSU in the Bundestag had previously made a push for more corona competencies for the federal government.

The three MPs Norbert Röttgen, Johann Wadephul and Yvonne Magwas wrote to other members of the parliamentary group that an agreement on joint action was "last and continuously" no longer possible.

Weil also reiterated his rejection of a hard lockdown.

«The last planned lockdown - the so-called Easter rest - was recalled by the Chancellor.

After that, we all agreed that this should not happen again, but that the federal-state talks must be better prepared - that is currently not apparent, ”criticized the head of government.
