from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hans Richarts (born October 14, 1910 in Schwarzenborn (Eifel) ; † June 12, 1979 in Trier ) was a German farmer and politician ( CDU ).

Life

Richarts was a qualified farmer. From 1938 to 1939 he was head of the agricultural branch II in Trier. From 1939 to 1945 he was in the Wehrmacht and then a prisoner of war. From 1946 to 1948 he was branch manager at the Saatbau-Verband für Rheinland-Pfalz. In 1948 he moved to the Rhineland-Nassau Chamber of Agriculture, was appointed Agriculture Councilor in 1950 and later Chief Agriculture Councilor. In 1952 he was elected to the Trier City Council.

Richarts was a member of the German Bundestag from 1953 to September 16, 1969 and again from the 1969 to 1972 federal election . Richarts resigned his Bundestag mandate on September 19, 1969 to be reactivated as a retired civil servant. This was a prerequisite for his promotion to the Oberlandwirtschaftsrat, which meant an increased retirement salary for him. He initially represented the Prüm constituency and, from 1965, the Bitburg constituency in parliament. Since 1926 he was a member of the academic Catholic student association Unitas Rhenania in Bonn .

From February 27, 1958 to February 14, 1973 he was also a member of the European Parliament . In this capacity, on December 11, 1967, he was the first MEP to put a question to the European Commission about the possibility of European rules for bird protection, which the Commission then answered negatively. These were only implemented in 1979 with the European Birds Directive.
