Graf: "Decision of the Federal Constitutional Court is an outstanding achievement"

Supreme Constitutional Judge: "right to human dignity Sozialgel d"

Graf: "Decision of the Federal Constitutional Court is an outstanding achievement"

The verdict: resentment of the constitutional guardians feel about the undermining of human dignity


By Andreas Klamm Sabaot, journalist and news correspondent

Karlsruhe / Berlin . 10. February 2010. In its ruling on the Hartz 4 - standard benefit rates reach the highest constitutional court in Germany to the conclusion that the provisions of the Second Social Code (SGB II), which relate to the standard benefit for adults and children, not the constitutional legal entitlement to warranty a decent- Existence minimum from Article 1, paragraph 1, of the Basic Law in conjunction with Article 20, paragraph 1 of the Basic Law (GG) and that are constitutional, unconstitutional. In an interview with international media project for human rights, "Liberty and Peace NOW! Human Rights Reporters described living in Nuremberg, author of "siding Hartz 4 - the untouchables of the nation," Hans-Jürgen Graf, the verdict of the highest constitutional watchdogs in Karlsruhe as an "outstanding performance", also the displeasure of the constitutional perceive judges over the "botched" attempt to undermine human dignity in leaving Germany.



Hans-Jürgen Graf: "Unconditional basic income is necessary and it will come." Photos: 3mnewswire.org

Hans-Jürgen Graf, you were chairman of the IG CARE AND FAITH in Nuremberg, has been involved in social many years for sick and poor people and are health expert as a certified health and nursing. You are also author of "siding - Hartz 4 - the untouchables of the nation".

How do you evaluate the decision of the Constitutional Court on the Hartz4 control services?

Hans Jürgen Graf: "I can only amateur View interpret. Secretly hoped actually probably almost every recipient that the government and political leaders a lesson is missed, which should probably dress in back payments for the previous periods. However, most people here confused two different approaches. This lesson would be affected in view of a human-oriented approach, but in a court of law the Senate is rarely spoken and justice.

respect I see the decision of the Federal Constitutional Court (FCC), even as a prominent decision to feel the anger and the guardian of the Constitution is that this is a really great but bumbling attempt the undermining of human dignity was taken. It is clarified that the determination of sets of rules in labor law must be transparent and understandable and blogs with the name of human dignity. This implies that actually all fall silent, calling for a lowering of the standard rates. However, this reaction would require intelligence. "

from their extensive years of experience, the benefits and, above all, improvements in the face of a decent existence backup created with the minimum of 9 February 2010 announced by the Federal Constitutional Court ruling?


Hans-Jürgen Graf: "If in fact enabled, even professional interests, representatives for the large number of aid recipients in the following years it would actually now be a simple matter to persuade the legislature to calculate viable rule sets in the SGB II and SGB XII and the recognition of special and multi-'Bedarfen in individual cases. However, I was among those who are always in such matters examined by the legislature, such as the social organizations and the like, so far only single representatives of which I saw myself as a concerned party who really competent.

the strong influence of lobbyists for the economy, we must also not forget that is not only in Berlin is very big. Here I hold little hope. It would have actually affected the self-organize and build up the pressure now to Berlin. But even here, I see firsthand some light on the horizon. Sometimes it seemed to me at parties, such as in not a few users on forums such as the ELO, etc. that you sit at home and waits for that Robin Hood falls from the sky. "

How should your opinion, now politically responsible action to take?

Hans-Jürgen Graf. "Actions in solidarity with the victims and bringing its actual needs,"

What would you estimate the real income rates be called transfer power receiver, in Nuremberg, to achieve a decent Exsitenzssicherungs-minimum - for social cash-earners, which means today Hartz 4th

Hans-Jürgen Graf: "I can tell, since I'm not an economist. However, from my own experience I would welcome a standard rate of 500 € very "

On the part of political and economic prime examples is the acquisition of work-seekers are held," People, you need to find work .... "- But are the many millions of new jobs are not acquisition in Germany. How do you think about The unconditional basic income?

Hans-Jürgen Graf: to suggest, "This constant palaver about the people that there were still enough jobs in Germany, has already become almost unbearable.

They are not bringing the jobs to all working people in need nationwide wage and enough bread. We will not come on time by the unconditional basic income away. It will be necessary and we will get it.

It should of course, the redistribution of wealth is necessary, but there are quite a few of rich people that would actually do so in order to man their to help the country. However, these proposals from the policy be ignored. I recall here the proposals of the Hamburg shipowner and of those who have signed his appeal to the Merkel government. An unconditional basic income is intended to finance it if I sales and profits of the companies look at the past years. However, it is not wanted by those who apparently do not have their throat enough and their influence in Berlin, I think is great. "

Thank you for the interview.

With the ruling, the Federal Constitutional Court judges have determined, among other things: stay


the existing requirements to a new regulation, which the legislature to 31 to meet December 2010, continue to apply, said the Federal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe in a press release.

announced, the Federal Constitutional Court, the legislature has provided for the Neureglung also entitled to benefits to ensure an unavoidable, permanent and not just one special need for after the paragraph 7 of the Second Social Code (SGB II) for beneficiaries. This applies if, such a claim from the services in accordance with paragraphs 20 and is following in the Second Social Code (SGB II) does not control, to ensure a decent existence minimum, but this "has to meet mandatory".

Until the new regulation by the legislature ordered the highest German court in Karlsruhe that such a claim on the basis of the grounds, directly from Article 1, paragraph 1, the Basic Law in conjunction with Article 20, paragraph 1, to the detriment of the Federal asserted can be.

result of the rulings of the Federal Constitutional Court: The Hartz 4 - sets of rules need to be recalculated because the Constitution, are unconstitutional.

The judges of the highest German court have very extensive and important aspects of their development on 9 Announced in February 2010 ruling in being considered.

the reasoning of the court ruling in Karlsruhe, which of dem Die Linke- Politiker Gregor Gysi als „historisches Urteil“ bezeichnet wird, heißt es auch: „Die Regelleistung von 345 Euro ist nicht in Verfassungs-gemäßer Weise ermittelt worden, weil von den Strukturprinzipien des Statistikmodells ohne sachliche Rechtfertigung abgewichen worden ist.

Das Sozialgeld für Kinder bis zur Vollendung des 14. Lebensjahres von 207 Euro genügt nicht den Verfassungs-rechtlichen Vorgaben, weil es von der bereits beanstandeten Regelleistung in Höhe von 345 Euro abgeleitet ist. Darüber hinaus beruht die Festlegung auf keiner vertretbaren Methode zur Bestimmung des Existenzminimums eines Kindes im Alter bis zur Vollendung des 14. Lebensjahres.”

Die Richter gelangten to the conclusion: "The is based in Section 2, paragraph 2 ruleset Ordinance 2005 established set of rules and thus also control power consumption is not relevant to the evaluation of a sustainable income and expenditure survey 1998th Because of individual expenditure items were percentage reductions for non-regular performance-related goods and services (such as furs, and Made-gliders) made without, it was clear whether the comparison group (lowest quintile) has ever made such expenditure.

For other items of expenditure cuts have been made that the reason was for justifiable in height but not substantiated empirically (for example, reduction by 15% at the current position). Other expenditure items, as the Section 10 (education), were completely ignored, although it is not been established.

The determination of the control in the amount of 311 € for cohabiting in need community partners did not meet the constitutional requirements, because to continue the shortcomings in the determination of the control performance for a single person here, because it was calculated on the basis of that standard benefit, presented the judge with other set.

Hartz 4 - standard benefits are unconstitutional

The Court of Federal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe: call the Alliance 90/The Greens now 420 euros per month - Gregor Gysi, the Left, "Hartz 4 attack on the welfare state / 500 € minimum-security, special and additional needs must be granted immediately be "- Manuela Schwesig (SPD):" Federal government must introduce minimum wage '- Christian Lindner (FDP) Restart the citizen's income "


By Andreas Klamm Sabaot, journalist and news correspondent

Karlsruhe / Berlin. 9. February 2010. The intensely debated provisions of the Second Social Code, relating to the standard benefits for adults and children and the so-called Hartz 4 - rule set, the first Senate of the Federal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe on 9 February decided that provisions of the Second Social Code (SGB II), which relate to the standard benefit for adults and children, not the constitutional Right to ensure a decent subsistence from Article 1, Paragraph 1 of the Basic Law in conjunction with Article 20, paragraph 1, of the Basic Law (GG) meet.

, the previous rules until a new regulation, which the legislature to 31 to meet December 2010, continue to apply, said the Federal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe in a press release.

announced, the Federal Constitutional Court, the legislature has the Neureglung also entitled to benefits designed to ensure an unavoidable, permanent and not just one special need for after the paragraph 7 of the Second Social Code (SGB II) for performance entitled provided. This applies if, such a claim from the services in accordance with paragraphs 20 and is following in the Second Social Code (SGB II) does not control, to ensure a decent existence minimum, but this "has to meet mandatory".

Until the new regulation by the legislature ordered the highest German court in Karlsruhe that such a claim on the basis of the grounds, directly from Article 1, paragraph 1, the Basic Law in conjunction with Article 20, paragraph 1, to the detriment of the Federal asserted can be.

result of the rulings of the Federal Constitutional Court: The Hartz 4 - sets of rules need to be recalculated because the Constitution unconstitutional are.

The judges of the highest German court have very extensive and important aspects of their development on 9 Announced in February 2010 ruling in being considered.

The grounds for the unexpected ruling states, inter alia: "The standard payment of 345 € has not been identified in constitutional and orderly way, because it has been waived in the structural principles of a statistical model without good cause.

The social benefit for children under the age of 14 Age of 207 € does not satisfy the constitutional law because it is derived from the claimed control in the amount of 345 €. In addition, beruht die Festlegung auf keiner vertretbaren Methode zur Bestimmung des Existenzminimums eines Kindes im Alter bis zur Vollendung des 14. Lebensjahres.”

Die Richter gelangten zur Überzeugung: „Der in Paragraph 2 Absatz 2 Regelsatzverordnung 2005 festgesetzte regelsatz- und damit zugleich regelleistungsrelevante Verbrauch beruht nicht auf einer tragfähigen Auswertung der Einkommens- und Verbrauchsstichprobe 1998. Denn bei einzelnen Ausgabepositionen wurden prozentuale Abschläge für nicht regelleistungsrelevante Güter und Dienstleistungen (zum Beispiel Pelze, Maßkleidung und Segelflugzeuge) vorgenommen, ohne dass feststand, ob die Vergleichsgruppe (unterstes Quintil) überhaupt solche Ausgaben getätigt hat.

For other items of expenditure cuts have been made that the reason was for justifiable in height but not empirically (eg 15% reduction in the current position). Other expenditure items, as the Section 10 (education), were completely ignored, although it is not been established.

Also ask the extrapolation of the determined for 1998 amounts to 2005 dar. ENVISAGES exemplified by the current pension value a properly anti-scale change while the statistical detection method on net income, consumer behavior and cost of living, setting forth tie after the current pension value to the development of gross wages and salaries, the contribution rate to the general pension insurance and to a factor of sustainability. These factors, however, have no relation to the subsistence level, criticized the Karlsruhe judges.

The determination of the control in the amount of 311 € for cohabiting in need community partners did not meet the constitutional requirements, because to continue the shortcomings in the determination of the control performance for a single person here, because it was calculated on the basis of that standard benefit, presented the judge with other set.


policy responses to the appeal for human dignity Existenssicherung


Ulrike Höfken, rheinland-pfälzische Bundestags-Abgeordnete und Sprecherin für Ernährungs-Politik und der Landesvorstands-Sprecher von Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen in Rheinland-Pfalz, Daniel Köbler, erklärten nach Bekanntwerden des Urteils vom Bundesverfassungsgericht, wonach die Regelsätze nach der Hartz 4 – Regelsatz-Verordnung verfassungswidrig sind:

„Die Bundesregierung muss nicht nur Antwort auf die Frage nach einer angemessenen Regelsatz-Höhe für die 1,7 Millionen betroffenen Kinder geben. Auch die über 5 Millionen erwachsenen Empfänger benötigen eine Anhebung ihres Hartz IV-Satzes auf 420€. Schwarz-Gelb muss hier sofort Abhilfe schaffen!“

The decision of the Constitutional Court was overdue and acknowledge the criticism of the Greens. Have long been the social organizations or the Dortmund Research Institute for Child Nutrition points out that not enough current rates for children for a dignified human existence-minimum and a healthy diet.

"The federal government is now required to make not only the calculation of the standard rates more transparent. We continue to call for an increase in the standard rates for children and € 330 in perspective, a children's basic security for all families. "Added Daniel Köbler.

The federal government doing anything for the fight against child poverty. Children have learned of the increase in child-benefit nothing, "since it is deducted from the rule set again," complained the Greens politician Höfken.

The party now demanded immediate consequences of the decision of the Constitutional Court. For this purpose the party had tabled a motion in the Bundestag. The 10 billion euros from the "non-answer the tax-cutting activities of the FDP and CDU are used for the creation of social justice," added the Green Party.

The Secretary General of the CDU, Hermann Gröhe said the ruling of the federal constitutional court in Karlsruhe: "Children brauchen Zuwendung im umfassenden Sinne. Das Urteil des Bundesverfassungsgerichts ist ein Urteil im Interesse der betroffenen Kinder – das ist gut und richtig! Denn sie sind diejenigen, die unter der Arbeitslosigkeit der Eltern besonders leiden.

In ihrem Sinne muss die Politik jetzt handeln und Lösungen finden. Was wir brauchen sind dabei zunächst nachvollziehbare Berechnungs-Verfahren, die der jeweiligen Lebenssituation in den Familien besser gerecht werden.

Zugleich ist klar: Es geht um mehr als die Höhe der finanziellen Mittel. Kinder brauchen Zuwendung im umfassenden Sinne. Dazu gehört Teilhabe an guter Bildung, Maßnahmen der Jugend- und Familienhilfe, Qualifizierungs-Maßnahmen und die ausreichende Bereitstellung of child-care services from day care to day care place. "

The increase for the parents the chance to take a job and so get out of Hartz IV.

Grühe Hermann: "We will also keep an eye on those families who have to cope in spite of hard work with low income. In this respect, the rule set for children, the children's allowance and child benefit will always be considered together. . For the CDU, the situation of suffering from poverty and poverty threatened children a special challenge, which we hope to answer with all my strength "

Gysi:" Hartz 4 "- attack on the welfare state


"The Federal Constitutional Court has pronounced on the SPD and the Greens, the CDU and FDP, but also a devastating indictment," said Gregor Gysi, the Left Party, the ruling of the Federal Constitutional Court.

"Hartz IV is an attack on the welfare state and poverty, by law. The rule benefits for adults and children with Hartz IV are unconstitutional and not a living wage. This addition to the organization and the substantive content of Hartz IV, has been declared unconstitutional. . The Left sees again that the basic criticism of the Hartz laws "

The Chairman of the Group of The Left said:" It is a historical Judgement. The Federal Constitutional Court found the superior court for the first time in German history that the Social Democratic Party of Germany to the initiated by her and has decided Hartz IV laws violated human dignity and contrary to the welfare state bid of the Basic Law. In the SPD and Greens, in particular the SPD, it is now a debate on the agenda of the government's policy Schröder / Fischer, start to its own location and its own strategy.

The judges have ordered the legislature to clarify the short term, what a person needs to live. Special and additional needs must be granted immediately. Hartz IV has finally failed. Mit dem Karlsruher Urteil wird das gesamte Konstrukt der Demütigung, Repression und des massiven Drucks auf die Löhne grundlegend gerügt.

Das Urteil muss nun genutzt werden, um in dieser Legislaturperiode ein menschenwürdiges, gerechtes, repressionsfreies System der sozialen Sicherung und fairer Löhne zu entwickeln. DIE LINKE wird eine bedarfsdeckende Mindestsicherung in Höhe von 500 Euro als Regelleistung für Erwachsene, eine eigenständige Kindergrundsicherung und einen flächendeckenden gesetzlichen Mindestlohn von 10 Euro einfordern. Wir werden für die Überwindung von prekärer Beschäftigung und Niedriglohn und für Steuergerechtigkeit kämpfen.”

Der FDP-General-Sekretär, Christian Lindner said the ruling of the federal constitutional court in Karlsruhe: "Today's ruling is the Hartz system exposed again as a bureaucratic, arbitrary and a total screwed up. The image of Hartz IV is legitimately bad. With the public money, the Christian-liberal coalition of the restart for an activating basic security in the program. This testing order was soon to be filled with life. "

SPD politician calls for minimum wage

The Party vice-chair Manuela Schwesig welcomed the decision by the Federal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe and called on the Federal Government to immediately separate sets of rules for children and create one-time benefits.

The policy had received the unequivocal order, more for children and teenagers to do in the country. The SPD, announced Schwesig, will be making at all levels for strong ". We want all children have good opportunities in life and grow up healthy,"

The SPD politician called on the federal government to "separate rule sets for children and to provide child-specific one-time benefits. "For children," said Schwesig, "are not small adults, but children have specific needs." But they would also need adequate financial support.

Manuela Schwesig asked by the federal government for the immediate introduction of a statutory minimum wage. Reason: "For good work for the parents was the" best weapon against child poverty. " Starvation wages for hard working parents who need to increase their income by Hartz IV should not be tolerated any longer.
