Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania: Climate Foundation: Former Economics Minister expresses doubts

Schwerin (dpa/mv) - Former Economics Minister Harry Glawe (CDU) has expressed doubts about the Prime Minister's statement that she was not informed about the burning of tax documents from the MV Climate Foundation. It doesn't seem "quite right that no information has reached the State Chancellery at all," the CDU politician told NDR on Monday. Manuela Schwesig is fond of detail and wants to know what is happening in the government, he said based on his own experiences in the previous red-black government.

An employee of the Ribnitz-Damgarten tax office had burned three submissions from the climate foundation as part of the check for gift tax liability. According to his own statements, Schwesig knew nothing about it. Your Finance Minister Heiko Geue (SPD) stated on Friday before state parliament committees that tax secrecy had prevented such information from being passed on.
