Governor Wilfried Haslauer (ÖVP) is said to have spoken en masse to conscience, according to some decision makers in Tennengau.

Already earlier in the week, Haslauer wrote to all the mayors, saying that they would like to “stop” the social gathering in the club rooms without a permanent establishment permit. Sporting events take place without spectators.
