Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) – In view of the energy crisis and the tense situation in many companies in the southwest, Economics Minister Nicole Hoffmeister-Kraut (CDU) relies on the expertise of a task force. This will be created to stabilize the economy and will meet for the first time this Thursday, said Hoffmeister-Kraut of the “Heilbronner Voice” and the “Südkurier” (Thursday).
The Association of Entrepreneurs Baden-Württemberg, the Chamber of Crafts, the Baden-Württemberg Chamber of Industry and Commerce, LBBW, L-Bank and the German Federation of Trade Unions are involved. There should be an intensive exchange in the committee, also about supporting measures. “If there are gaps in the federal government’s aid programs, we want to close them as a state,” said Hoffmeister-Kraut. But you have to know what the federal government is planning. Another problem is “that many companies can no longer get loans”. That is why banks are also involved.
