State government Wallnöfer III

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The provincial government of Wallnöfer III formed the Tyrolean provincial government during the VII legislative period under Governor Eduard Wallnöfer between October 20, 1970 and July 1, 1975.

After the state elections in 1970 , the government team was reduced from eight to seven members. In addition to the losses of the Austrian People's Party (ÖVP) in the state elections, this meant that the ÖVP government team shrank from six to five members. The ÖVP then provided the governor, a deputy governor and three provincial councilors. The Social Democratic Party of Austria (SPÖ) was also represented in the state government by a deputy governor due to the proportional representation system, and the SPÖ also provided a state councilor. Compared to the previous government, the Wallnöfer II state government , there were changes in several positions. Herbert Salcher (SPÖ) took over the role of Deputy Governor from his party colleague Karl Kunst , who was no longer a member of the new government. The ÖVP regional councilors Robert Lackner , Adolf Tropp, air and Reinhold Unterweger were no longer part of the government team. For this, Luis Basseti and Alois Partl were sworn in as new ÖVP state councilors.

While Governor Wallnöfer was elected with 32 of the 36 possible votes, with four invalid votes, the election of the remaining members of the government took place according to proportional representation through the written nomination of the government members by the two state parliament clubs of the ÖVP and SPÖ.
