When does the lockdown in Lower Saxony begin?

When will public life in Germany shut down? The fact that there will be a nationwide hard lockdown already applies before the Chancellor’s video switch Angela Merkel (CDU) with the 16 heads of government of the federal states as safe today, Sunday. The only question is when the time comes.

Lower Saxony Economics Minister Bernd Althusmann (CDU) had indicated in the HAZ that Lower Saxony Shops have to end their Christmas business a few days earlier this year without committing to a specific day. In general, December 20th was initially considered the day on which Germany could be locked down for the second time this year.

Althusmann calls for uniform rules

Apparently, at least for the Chancellor, that is too late. Go after it Merkel, shops, schools and daycare centers should close on Wednesday, reports the “Bild” newspaper.

That should be the most contentious point in the deliberations on Sunday. Althusmann had spoken out in favor of a uniform and speedy approach. That has not always been the case in the past few weeks and months. Sometimes the princes felt taken by surprise by the ideas of the Chancellery, then again there was a basic agreement on uniform rules – but some of them were cashed back as soon as possible Schleswig-Holstein Prime Minister Daniel Günther (CDU).
