Saxony's Minister President Michael Kretschmer (CDU) sees an urgent need for action to reduce bureaucracy. He told the German Press Agency after a visit to the construction site of the semiconductor company Infineon in Dresden that Germans must be prepared to get rid of the excess baggage that exists in many places. "I don't know whether this can be achieved on a small scale or whether we need a general solution."
Moratorium on regulatory density
In this context, Kretschmer called for a moratorium on issuing new regulations for the next few years and reducing them to the European minimum. Germany is above European law for many regulations, which makes projects expensive, slower and more difficult. "That's not how it works." The construction of Infineon's new Smart Power Fab is proof that projects can be implemented quickly and efficiently if you work professionally and free yourself from overregulation.
