Tele TrusT: Political declarations of intent must be followed by concrete implementation of Federal IT Security Association (TeleTrusT) welcomes central provisions of the CDU/CSU/SPD Coalition contract to IT security. The upcoming legislative session offers the opportunity to regain lost ground in the IT security technology and to bring Germany in an international context in a pioneering position. TeleTrusT advocated in particular the points:-development of Internet infrastructure of in Germany and Europe as a space for trust; -Advocating for a European Cybersicherheitsstrategie; -Measures for the recovery of technological sovereignty; -Development of trusted IT and network infrastructure, including developing more secure software and hardware and secure cloud technology; -The creation of an IT security law with mandatory minimum requirements for critical infrastructure; -Duty to report “significant IT security incidents”; -Commitment of the federal authorities, for system security to use 10% of their IT budget; – Development and dissemination of secure card readers and cryptographic solutions; -Initiation of Resourceconserving “IT security and critical infrastructure”; -Introducing a liability from IT vendors and service providers for privacy and IT security defects in their products. These principles address important requirements of the IT security industry, as it represents also TeleTrusT. The lack of financial statements, as they were still included in earlier drafts of the Treaty is regrettable. Although it can be admitted that a coalition agreement first is a consensus-oriented, political declaration of intent: the future federal Government will have to be be measured, how fast, how in concrete terms and how coordinated the implementation of the measures succeed and to what extent the Government here her role model meets.

While the coalition has been criticized often, but especially the young in 2011 is likely to become a major challenge for the Government parties. The news portal news.de explains the background. Shall be the year 2011 as the year of the Super choice, because a new Parliament is elected in seven provinces. Hamburg made the pioneer at the weekend and the SPD reached an absolute majority. The final election results are still open and background analyses reveal to the Hamburg Landtag election already one: politically a lot will change is expected not only in the provinces, where is selected, but probably also at the federal level. The start was in the new year for Chancellor Merkel and the Black-Yellow Coalition anything but cheap. So the dioxin scandal, was the one in which have wanted many consumers a determined Minister of agriculture had a stress test dar.

On the other hand, the Defense Minister, inter alia through various incidents in the German army is put on the defensive. To come up with the SPD on the Hartz-IV reform internal disputes with Finance Minister Schauble and seemingly endless wrangling. This year, the Government is so far no better image than in the past.

In this respect, it remains to be seen how the Government will get through the Super election year. More information: policy /… News.de GmbH Lisa Neumann

CSA Bavaria CDA Baden-Wurttemberg hold and therefore on their previous positions, stating that there must first be a head lump sum and second may not dismiss the employer from their responsibility for the health insurance contribution.

The two Chairmen of the workers wing of the Union of Gaby require employers may not be through a freezing”steal from responsibilities based on solidarity” of employer contribution, Stauner and Christian BA. Stauner and Baumler request also the participation of country representatives in the Government Commission announced by the Federal Minister of health to the health insurance reform. It is unacceptable that a reform, which must be carried out by the Lander, is negotiated in a closed party Federal Ministers. We therefore demand the participation of competent Ministers of countries such as Karl Josef Laumann (NRW) and Markus Soder (BY) “.”
