In an interview with the newspaper “Kurier”, the Styrian Governor Hermann Schützenhöfer (ÖVP) proposed to create additional restrictions or increase the control options for “certain cases, for certain times” in the days of Corona.

“I don’t want to look inside the bedroom, but when you have excesses at private parties in a basement or in a garden shed, you have to be able to solve it,” he explained. Schützenhöfer is in favor of “that we are looking here for a constitutionally viable path”, in which also other parties embed. It is currently the case that the executive’s options effectively end at the private door.

FPÖ criticizes “Austro-fascist surveillance fantasies”

In violent resistance I found Schützenhöfer’s trailer on Monday morning on FPÖ and NEOS. For FPÖ club president Herbert Kickl Schützenhöfer was “living out his Austrofascist surveillance fantasies,” he wrote in a broadcast. “The ÖVP apparently wants to penetrate private apartments under the guise of a crown,” Kickl quickly attacked the Chancellor party. The governor is a “case of protection of the constitution.”

The protest also came from the Styrian blues in the person of the local party leader Mario Kunasek, who said: “The Freedom Party is outraged by the statements and immediately asks the governor for clarification.” But the Styrian NEOS also protested against Schützenhöfer’s proposal. “The ÖVP’s fantasies of omnipotence never end,” commented the club president. Niko Swatek The advance and stated for his party: “There should be no constitutional possibility of intervening in the private space.”

Schützenhöfer against shortened quarantine

Unlike his party colleague Tourismusministerin Elisabeth Köstinger Schützenhöfer doesn’t think about it Quarantänezeit shorten the K1 contact persons in tourism from ten to five days to be able to “break free”. Studies would not allow it. “I think shortening it for certain groups is dangerous anyway, because why are you doing it for them? And for me there is no indication that the quarantine period should be shortened for everyone. “

too other measures, which were currently being announced by Federal Chancellor Sebastian Kurz (also ÖVP), Schützenhöfer rejects: “Just because two districts in Styria are red, one is pushing for measures such as an earlier curfew or mandatory registration in the inn. But I don’t see that where the curfew has been advanced, there are fewer infections. Most of the infections occurred with the Club celebrations in communities: members of the Styrian government can no longer participate in such celebrations, they should be postponed or canceled, warns Schützenhöfer.

The governor of Styria criticizes Vienna, which the federal government worries. There are differences within the coalition regarding the crown measures. This can be felt, and there is also very little coordination with federal statescomplains the politician ÖVP. However, he expressly praised Chancellor Kurz for his efforts.
