Coping with the large number of petitions during this period of upheaval was a great challenge that Göttsching had to deal with in the following six months in addition to the “normal” parliamentary activities.

“Not some anonymous administrative staff answered the letters, but the chairman. The letters were of course prepared by the administration. Some letters had to be rewritten because the possible answer left a lot to be desired and revealed an old style. During this time I signed 10,000 replies and, in my opinion, showed a piece of emerging democracy. "
