As a result of the election result, his party had to give up one of three district office departments, so that Stock returned to the teaching profession and continued to work politically in the mandate as a district councilor in the SPD parliamentary group.

With the completion of the district merger, his Köpenick official colleague Klaus Ulbricht became district mayor of Treptow-Köpenick. Stock continued to work from November 2000 until the early elections in Berlin in October 2001 as chairman of the SPD parliamentary group in the joint district assembly.
