Unveiled: Berlin taxpayers have to pay 24 billion euros for the pension of Senate members - Tagesspiegel exclusively unveiled.

according to a report by www.tagesspiegel.de , the Senate Finance Administration confirmed at a request from MP Antonin Brousek (without a political group) that taxpayers had to raise 333.005.89 euros for the retirement content of former members of the Berlin Senate and former State Secretary in November alone. Since 1994, ex-senators and former State Secretaries have risen more than 23 million euros in pensions. There are 31 former state secretaries in preliminary retirement, and since the government takeover by red-red-green, 24 state secretaries have been sent to retirement.

The high retirement containers for dismissed state secretaries have financial effects on Berlin taxpayers and raise the question of whether it makes sense not to use highly qualified civil servants with a lot of experience in administration. The inability of the financial administration to provide precise information about the people is criticized, since transparency is required, who is financed by their work.

The former legislative initiative to pave the way back to the administration was rejected before the 2021 election. The demand for a new advance for a right of return for released state secretaries is discussed again to use your experience in the administration. The discussion about the high pension containers and the lack of transparency regarding the recipients continue to raise questions and ensure controversial debates in Berlin.
