After the controversial decision from Karlsruhe, the Federal Minister of Economics presents himself as understanding. No faction has moved away from the heating law – not even the FDP.
Federal Minister of Economics Robert Habeck does not see the temporary halt to the Building Energy Act (GEG) by the Federal Constitutional Court as a defeat.
“Of course, the opposition should have plenty of time, enough time. The opinion of the governing factions, the government, to which I belong, as you know, is that it was circulating for about a week, that’s enough time because it was a deeply discussed law,” said the Greens politician last night on the ZDF talk show “Lanz”.
“But ok, if more time is desired and required because the court determines it, then that’s the way it is. That’s not a broken leg either.” The decisive factor is that no faction has moved away from the law, not even the FDP. “I’m happy for the Union that they now have time to study the law again,” said Habeck.
The Federal Constitutional Court had stopped the traffic light coalition’s plan to pass the so-called heating law in the Bundestag today in an urgent procedure. The opposition had heavily criticized the tight schedule.
