Green Party candidate for chancellor Annalena Baerbock has had to add three voluntary activities to her Bundestag page, which she had reported too late. This was confirmed on Friday by a spokeswoman of the Green Party leader on request of the Deutsche Presse-Agentur. Previously, the newspaper Bild had reported on the late registration, referring to an announcement by the organisation abgeordnetenwatch.de the day before. According to this, the administration of the Bundestag published on Thursday three new honorary functions of the candidate for Chancellor at the German Renewable Energy Federation (BEE), at the European Council and at the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU).

"As part of the updates made to the curriculum vitae in June", Baerbock's office subsequently reported "active and terminated memberships" to the Bundestag, the spokeswoman said. The three honorary offices had been part of these subsequent notifications. After verification by the Bundestag administration, "these have now also been published on the Bundestag website". Baerbock had not received any expense allowance for any of the activities. The spokesperson confirmed that some of the honorary posts were taken up several years ago and that the activities should have been reported earlier. Accordingly, the subsequent registration of the honorary posts would have been obligatory within three months. A spokesperson of the Bundestag added that the obligation to report within this period applies equally to remunerated and unremunerated activities. The update on the Bundestag website shows that Baerbock had already given up the function within the Heinrich Böll Foundation in 2018, for example, and should have reported it much earlier. Baerbock had also previously reported special payments received from her party to the Bundestag too late. The Green Party candidate for chancellor has recently also come under criticism for corrections to her CV and controversial passages in her recently published book.

Sometimes funny, humorous and very witty and then again sad and almost depressing. I particularly like the text about Icarus. I also recommend Satire is My Favourite Animal as a guide to a better life. There are many very good approaches that we should question. I am also particularly impressed by the excellent text on climate change. ------------------------------------------------------------ You can order one of the most humorous books ever----------------------- Satire is my favourite animal by Wolfgang Hampel:------------- national & international--------------------- USA , United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Germany, Hungary, Japan , Japan
