The Ticino government was decided on: To the rapid spread of the Coronavirus curb, ordered it on the last weekend of the closure of all construction sites and industrial plants. A whole week of this stopped the illegal state, without the Federal Council’s ride-on screw-on.
had no joy in the arbitrary procedure of the Canton, but saw the need to leave him some room. The Problem: The current law provides for this possibility. In an extraordinary situation, the Federal government holds alone the reins in Hand.
The state government is needed, therefore, to Friday, to find a solution, the Ticino satisfied, but also to prevent other cantons to follow the example.
The Trick: The regulation of the Federal Council, is formulated in such a way that only the Ticino fulfilled all the criteria, and further rules may decide. At least for the time being.
“insecurity in the population,”
The St. Gallen government councillor Benedikt Würth (52, CVP) is pleased that the derogation is only valid for the Canton of Ticino. “I have not found it good that in the last few weeks, the individual cantons are forged ahead,” the President of the conference of the cantonal governments. “This not only brings the Federal Council and the other cantons in a difficult position, but it also leads to insecurity in the population.”
in fact, other cantons such as Uri or Geneva had imposed in addition to the Ticino, self-powerful, more far-reaching measures than the Federal: Uri decided on a curfew for people over 65-Year-old, of Geneva ordered the closing of all construction sites. Both cantons had their measures under its repeal.
As the highest in the Canton of representatives of Benedikt Würth hopes the Federal government may have other exceptions to res triktiv hand. Not least for economic reasons. “The supply chains of businesses don’t make it to the Canton borders”, says Würth. “If, for example, the company Hamilton can’t produce more of their respirators, because a supplier is not allowed to work from another Canton, is no good to anyone.”
leadership of the Federal government
the FDP Council of States Thierry Burkart (44) it looks similar. The representative of the Canton of Aargau, says that he was a “staunch federalist”. However, “in this extraordinary position it takes in accordance with the principle of “one room, a boss, a job” a clear leadership. The lies with the Federal government”.
Not only are the majority of the cantons also welcomes the decision of the Federal Council, also in Ticino, one is satisfied. The exception for the Südkanton strength of national cohesion, says Christian Vitta (47, FDP), President of the Ticino government. The Federal Council shall have a national Vision. “However, it is important to take regional peculiarities into account.” The Ticino is more advanced than the other regions in terms of the spread of the Coronavirus for a few weeks.
On the question of whether the Canton with its decision, knowingly breaks the law in buying have taken, answers Vitta diplomatically: “There are conflicting opinions about the legal opinions.”
SVP-councillor Marco Chiesa (45) is more explicit: “All in the Ticino, was aware of the fact that we are not abiding with the decision of last Sunday, at the Directive of the Federal government.” However, the Federal government had to reckon with this step. Chiesa: “For weeks we stress, in what particular location, the Ticino is!”
conditions are strictly> a
a week Ago, when the people met continue to be in large groups, he advocated this radical measure yet: “Today I think the population has understood what it is.”
However, the Geneva cantonal government, that the German part of Switzerland and implements the rules of the Federal government’s strict – that is, the example of the Canton of Geneva follows.
“Starting Monday, controlled the police, whether the people in the shops enough distance,” explains Poggia. It was staff from the health police in civilian clothes. “If people don’t follow the rules,” adds Poggia, “can you pronounce buses.”
