The renowned lawyer is a long-time trusted party staff, sits on a ticket from the state holding ÖBAG at the top of the supervisory boards of Telekom Austria and Post.
Instead, Gewessler had Ilse Stockinger planned as new president, manager of Wiener Holding and head of development of the WH Arena project. Recently, however, Gewessler sent a new list to the Cabinet. Surprise, Hlawati finds herself at the top again.
Stockinger is intended for a simple mandate. The Brussels lawyer is new Dörte Fouquet. AK’s energy expert is also on the “old” supervisory board. Dorothea Herzele with that.
Under the new proposal, the supervisory council would be made up solely of women. Gewessler is considered a pioneer when it comes to the quota of women. The only man who was originally appointed by Gewessler to the board of directors came out again before he entered: Jurgen Schneider, Head of Section of the Ministry of Climate and former head of the Federal Environment Agency.
However, it will be exciting to see if it really turns out that way. As you can hear, the ÖVP is still not completely satisfied with this. A second term as Domany’s replacement should still be there, expected with Turquesa. Given the sensitivity of the matter and the pressure of time, neither side wants to comment officially.
In terms of party politics, the ten-person regulatory commission is not that sensitive, it is “just” experts and two judges. In terms of content, however, this commission is essential. It decides on the level of tariffs for electricity and gas networks, as well as on access to supply networks, issues ordinances and resolves disputes.
In any case, time is of the essence. Perhaps there will be a decision from the Cabinet of Ministers on Wednesday after all.
