Bernd Palenda (* 1960 in Berlin-Tempelhof ) is a German administrative lawyer . From 2013 to 2018 he was Head of the Berlin Office for the Protection of the Constitution , Department II of the Senate Department for Interior and Sports Berlin.

Life

From 1980 to 1985 he studied law at the Free University of Berlin . During his legal clerkship at the Berlin Court of Appeal , he was a research assistant at the chair of constitutional and administrative lawyer Christian Graf von Pestalozza .

After passing the second state examination, he became a lawyer in 1988 . While working as a lawyer, he applied to the Senate Department for Home Affairs. In May 1990 he joined the Senator for Home Affairs in Berlin as a consultant for legal and fundamental matters. There he completed a longer course at the School for the Protection of the Constitution (SfV). In January 1993, Palenda moved to the Ministry of the Interior of Brandenburg . He was the personal assistant to the Interior Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Alwin Ziel .

Palenda was significantly involved in the development of the file inspection and information access law of the state of Brandenburg and thus created the first such state law in Germany in 1998 . He was also involved in the further development of the Data Protection Act and the monitoring of data protection in the private sector. From April 2001 to December 2005 he was head of the policy department and from July 2004 to 2005 deputy head of the constitution protection department of the Ministry of the Interior in Brandenburg.

From January 2006 to February 2011, he headed the policy department in the Office for the Protection of the Constitution of the Senate Department for Home Affairs and Sport of the State of Berlin. From March 2011 to November 2012 he moved within the Senate Administration as head of the department for technical supervision and law of public safety and order, which oversees the 20,000 Berlin police officers.

On November 19, 2012, Bernd Palenda took over the provisional management of the Office for the Protection of the Constitution of the Senate Department for Home Affairs and Sport of the State of Berlin. He replaced Claudia Schmid , who had resigned for many years because of the shredder affair . Palenda intended to “dare more transparency” with the protection of the constitution. The taz found that a "new beginning with delicate corrections" had begun with him. The friendly hardliner (“he is not to be trifled with”, according to the taz ) advocates more parliamentary control over the protection of the constitution. Furthermore, Palenda restructured the procedure for sorting out and handing over files to the state archive. By resolution of the Berlin Senate in its session on August 20, 2013, Palenda has been head of the Berlin Office for the Protection of the Constitution, Department II of the Senate Department for Home Affairs and Sport, since that day.

After the meeting of the Committee for the Protection of the Constitution in the Berlin House of Representatives on June 20, 2018, in which State Secretary Torsten Akmann announced extensive technical supervision for the protection of the constitution, Palenda asked for a transfer. He was transferred to the Senate Chancellery as head of the ZS (Central Control) department. His successor Michael Fischer took over the management of the Berlin Office for the Protection of the Constitution in November 2018.
