The Schleswig-Holstein Landtag is the state parliament of the country Schleswig-Holstein . It takes on the role of the legislative body (legislative) in the political system of Schleswig-Holstein . Its parliamentary functions and its composition are basically regulated by Article 16 of the state constitution. The state parliament is elected for five years. He appoints the Prime Minister (currently Daniel Günther ) of Schleswig-Holstein. Similar to other state parliaments, its main responsibilities lie in the areas of education , culture , spatial planning and domestic politics .
composition
After the state elections in Schleswig-Holstein in 2017, the state parliament has consisted of the following parliamentary groups since June 6, 2017 : CDU (25 seats), SPD (21 seats), Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen (10 seats), FDP (9 seats), AfD (4 seats), SSW (3 seats) and a non-attached MP (1 seat).
Suffrage
Since the year 2000 the state parliament has been elected with a modified proportional representation with two votes and a five percent hurdle , similar to that of the federal election. In 2012, 35 candidates moved in through a direct mandate, and a further 34 were elected through a state list.
As a representative of the Danish minority, the SSW is exempt from the five percent hurdle as a result of the negotiations before the Bonn-Copenhagen declarations . A lawsuit by the Schleswig-Holstein State Association of the Junge Union against this regulation was dismissed by the Schleswig-Holstein State Constitutional Court in a judgment of September 13, 2013, which confirmed the special position of the SSW in the electoral law.
building
The seat of the Landtag has been the Landeshaus Kiel since May 3, 1950 . It was built in 1888 as the naval academy of the Imperial Navy . Renovations were carried out several times, most recently in April 2003 a new plenary hall was completed according to a design by the Hanoverian team of architects Anja Brüning and Wolfgang-Michael Pax.
From 1946 to 1950 the state parliament met in Kiel (city theater, milk research institute, educational academy), in Lübeck town hall , in Flensburg and Eckernförde .
Bureau
In the 19th electoral term, the Presidium includes:
- Klaus Schlie (CDU), President of the State Parliament
- Kirsten Eickhoff-Weber (SPD), Vice President
- Aminata Touré (Alliance 90 / The Greens), Vice-President
- Annabell Krämer (FDP), Vice President
particularities
At least three times (1979, 1992, 2009) the opposition parties represented in the state parliament were able to collect more votes (but fewer seats in the state parliament) than the ruling party (s).
The distribution of seats in the state assembly elected in 2009 has been challenged in court by several opposition parties, as they believe that the restriction on compensatory mandates contradicts the state constitution. On August 30, 2010, the Schleswig-Holstein State Constitutional Court then declared the electoral law to be incompatible with the state constitution, but for a different reason (the strong enlargement of the state parliament through the overhang and equalization mandates that were granted violates the state parliament's size of 69 members of the state constitution ). The electoral law therefore had to be changed by May 2011 and the state parliament had to be re-elected according to this new electoral law by September 30, 2012 at the latest. The CDU, SPD and FDP then decided to reduce the number of direct mandates from 40 to 35 and, against the opposition of the other parties, deleted the size of the state parliament from the constitution in order to remedy the unconstitutionality. In May 2012, new elections were held with the new electoral law.
