Today in Rhein-Main: A new chief of police and his station district

Good evening,

in Frankfurt, the new chief of police, Stefan Müller, has been inaugurated.

He was already in the station district.

He wasn't happy about the sight: "And here you will be chief of police," he said to himself.

Well then, roll up your sleeves and go.

Meanwhile, Hesse's social courts urgently need new blood.

Law school hardly prepares you for that.

And: what is to become of the beautiful Offenbach main station?

No dark pants, tie, jacket

: "That's not me," Stefan Müller once said.

Instead, he is standing in the large canteen of the Frankfurt police headquarters in a white uniform shirt.

Only his epaulettes reveal that he is the new head of the agency.

On Monday Interior Minister Peter Beuth (CDU) installed Müller as the new chief of police in Hesse's largest city, succeeding Gerhard Bereswill.

And Müller knows what needs to be done: things can't stay the same in the station district.

He said that clearly in the conversation with Katharina Iskandar, which is well worth reading.

Hesse's social courts urgently need new blood.

The retirement of the baby boomers tears a significant hole.

14 judges will retire in 2022 and 2023, which means that in this small jurisdiction, 12 percent of the positions will have to be filled within two years.

Trial judges are already working in a quarter of the posts in the first instance.

At the beginning of 2023 there will already be 30.

The fact that a digitally savvy generation is now coming to the social courts has advantages for the electronic file, which, according to the law, must be introduced nationwide by January 2026.

The problem is that social law hardly plays a role in law school.

Alter Hauptbahnhof

: It doesn't take an overflowing imagination to imagine what could become of the building in Offenbach.

As far as rail traffic is concerned, Offenbach Ost station has long since taken over the function of the main station.

But the conspicuous station building at the southern end of Kaiserstraße, which was given its current form in the German Art Deco style in the 1920s, should not be left to the bleak emptiness that has reigned there for years, demands Jochen Remmert.

And

Mainova AG will also need a new CEO in the foreseeable future.

Constantin Alsheimer, the previous head of the Frankfurt energy supplier, will change to the head of the Thüga AG municipal utility group in Munich by January 1, 2024 at the latest +++ According to the airport operator Fraport, operations at Frankfurt Airport will continue on the first holiday weekend, despite an estimated 180,000 passengers a day without long waiting times.

On Wednesday, however, significant bottlenecks are also to be expected in Frankfurt: the Verdi union called for a warning strike in the collective bargaining dispute with Deutsche Lufthansa +++ Sanofi is not entitled to a monopoly on flu vaccines for the elderly.

This was decided by the state social court.

Many greetings

Yours, Carsten Knop
