District Administrator forbids the mourning public from forming an opinionThe citizens’ initiative Burgenlandkreis had invited people to an informational event about the IKIG – Intermunicipal Industrial Area – on November 17, 2024. The district administrator banned the holding of this event. A new date had to be scheduled.  In the prohibition order, the district administrator states that criticism of the establishment of the new industrial area would be expressed during the event. Due to the intended expression and formation of opinion and the fact that the event is publicly accessible to everyone, this is considered an assembly pursuant to Article 8 of the Basic Law. The district administrator refers to the fact that the protection of state-recognized holidays is constitutionally anchored in Article 140 of the Basic Law in conjunction with Article 139 of the Weimar Constitution and is regulated by the state-specific FeiertG LSA (Holiday Act of Saxony-Anhalt). Of particular importance is the Volkstrauertag (National Day of Mourning) on November 17, 2024. Events or assemblies in venues with alcohol service, which go beyond the mere serving of drinks, are prohibited if they do not respect the character of the day. The decree further states that an assembly within the meaning of Article 8 of the Basic Law is a gathering of several persons aimed at public opinion formation. Based on the legal foundations, the district administrator concludes that this event on November 17, 2024, is not permissible and is already prohibited by the FeiertG LSA. Although the decree refers to exceptions in cases of urgent reasons making the expression of opinion indispensable, the district administrator does not see these as given, since the establishment of the new industrial area in Zorbau is not imminent. If the assembly is held nevertheless, a fine of 1,500 euros will be imposed. Opinion: While the establishment of the IKIG is not imminent, the city and municipal councils are already setting the course for it and, as in Weißenfels on November 7, 2024, passing corresponding resolutions. Especially in Weißenfels, it became clear that many issues remain unclear to the councilors, citizens’ objections are ignored, and the path for the IKIG is to be cleared. The IKIG is also on the agenda at the upcoming committee meeting in Lützen. Once again, it is quite revealing how eager the district administration is to suppress even critical informational events. The reference to the National Day of Mourning seems to me rather far-fetched, since according to https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religionen_in_Deutschland, only 13.7 percent of the population in Saxony-Anhalt belong to one of the major religious denominations. How many of them actually attend church is surely a different matter. One gets the impression once again that critical voices and citizens’ initiatives in the district are being held back to push through projects like the IKIG. On the other hand, it is repeatedly stated that democracy lives from participation and that citizens should get involved. Date postponedThe citizens’ initiative immediately announced a new date – November 22, 2024, at 5 p.m., at the Friedenseiche tavern in Zorbau.An arbitrary decisionAs proof of the district administrator’s arbitrary decision, the Heavysaurus concert can be cited, which is allowed to take place on November 17, 2024.Author: AI-Translation - Michael Thurm | 14.11.2024 |
