Life

Mentil attended elementary school from 1946 to 1950 and then secondary school until 1954. Between 1954 and 1958 he learned the profession of electrical engineer and then completed an apprenticeship as a businessman at the Institute for Economic Development. Between 1958 and 1960 he did his military service. Mentil worked from 1958 to 1965 as an electrical engineer and fitter and from 1965 worked as an independent businessman. After the end of his political career, Mentil worked as an entrepreneur. His financially ailing company was defrauded of considerable business assets by a German “restructuring” in 2002 after the fraudster announced that he would avert the bankruptcy of Mentil's company. The fraudster was charged with numerous offenses in 2002. Mentil had already got into economic difficulties with his company in 1999 and had to file for bankruptcy that year.

Mentil belonged to the municipal council of Rabenstein an der Pielach from 1972 and was an executive member of the municipal council. From 1972 to 1998 he held the office of district party chairman of the FPÖ Sankt Pölten Stadt and between 1982 and 1998 he held the function of the regional party chairman of the FPÖ Lower Austria. From 1985 he worked in the Lower Austrian Chamber of Commerce and was a member of various committees. From 1995 he was also a committee member of the Austrian Chamber of Commerce. Between 1997 and 1989 he held the position of deputy section chairman of the Lower Austria Chamber of Commerce. Mentil represented the FPÖ in the National Council from November 7, 1994, but had to resign from all internal party functions after the financial affair around Peter Rosenstingl in 1998 as a regional party chairman. After Mentil did not want to resign from his National Council mandate, he was expelled from the FPÖ. From October 8, 1998, he was in the National Council without a club membership and resigned from parliament on October 28, 1999.
