District and state politics

The improvement of the public road and port infrastructure for the west coast of Schleswig-Holstein is one of the core issues of Nielsen's commitment. In addition, following his conviction, the expansion of the port and quay facilities on the Elbe near Brunsbüttel ("further deep-water port", "LNG terminal") is to be seen as an important building block for the marketing of the available industrial space. In 2017, municipal planning led to a building permit for another deep-water port on the Elbe.

For the entire coastal fishing fleet and shipyard capacities, Nielsen calls for investments in the state port of Büsum and other tourist offers in the vicinity of the port. Volker Nielsen is committed to maintaining the district and community structures in Schleswig-Holstein. He is convinced that associations of communities and districts can only take place on a voluntary basis in order to preserve the citizens' increased voluntary commitment and their self-image for local democracy.
