Overview

• Reiner Haseloff invited Education Minister Eva Feußner, CDU state chairman Sven Schulz and education spokesman Carsten Borchert to a clarifying meeting at the state chancellery in Magdeburg.
• The session was prompted by parliamentary objections to Feußner’s decision to abolish ski courses and her proposal to raise minimum pupil numbers at schools in Halle, Magdeburg and Dessau-Roßlau.
• CDU lawmakers accused Feußner of making solo decisions without adequate consultation within the party’s parliamentary group.
• After the two-hour meeting, participants declined to disclose its conclusions and headed to a later faction session in the state parliament.
• A government spokesperson said the outcomes could not be shared immediately but are expected to be released later in the day.
