Special state parliament for the Principality of Pyrmont

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The special parliament for the Principality of Pyrmont was from 1849 to 1864 the Special Diet of the Principality of Pyrmont .

history

There were no estates in the county of Pyrmont (which was called the Principality of Pyrmont from 1807) . Only after the March Revolution of 1848 were three Pyrmont MPs represented in the Waldeck-Pyrmont state parliament. The status of the Principality of Pyrmont in Waldeck-Pyrmont was controversial. While the prince strove for a constitutional unification, the estates shied away from mutual liability for the national debts of the two principalities. During the deliberations on the state constitution for the principalities of Waldeck and Pyrmont on May 23, 1849, the consensus of a common state but separate state budgets emerged. To control the Pyrmont state budget, the special parliament was created, which had the budget right for the Pyrmont state budget. The electoral law of December 12, 1848 laid down the modalities for the election of this special parliament.

This consisted of five MPs who were elected in five one-person constituencies. These constituencies were:

  1. City of Pyrmont
  2. Oesdorf, Löwensen and Thal
  3. Holzhausen and Hagen
  4. Barsen, Großenberg and Kleinenberg
  5. Neersen and Eichenborn

The deputies received two talers per day.

On July 21, 1849, the special parliament approved the constitutional law and the state budget. With regard to the Special Parliament, the following provisions were made in the constitutional law: It now consisted of eight members. These were the three representatives in the joint state parliament and five other members who were elected in the five one-person constituencies mentioned. The five MPs were elected for four years; the representatives in the entire state parliament were members of the special parliament as long as they were also members of the entire state parliament. In 1852, Prince Georg Victor passed the constitutional charter for the principalities of Waldeck and Pyrmont . Article 47 of this constitution regulated the special day-to-day. Changes for the special parliament only arose through the state parliament order of July 27, 1954. Thereafter, the five members were elected in three constituencies. A deputy was elected by the city of Pyrmont. Two MPs were elected in each of the other two constituencies:

  1. Oesdorf, Löwensen, Thal, Holzhausen and Hagen
  2. Barsen, Großenberg, Kleinenberg, Neersen and Eichenborn

With the law of January 30, 1864, a uniform state budget was created and the special parliament was thus obsolete. From January 4 to 9, 1864, the special parliament met for the last time at an extraordinary session.
