Is it only a control offense due to technical problems?
ELGA GmbH had announced that the technical implementation would not be possible until April at the earliest. “We shouldn’t bury our heads in the sand from the start because there are challenges,” is Nehammer’s reply. He also points out that Health Minister Wolfgang Mückstein (Greens) has already brought the variant into play that initially one makes a so-called control offense out of it. As long as ELGA is not yet ready, the authorities would then carry out controls similar to those in road traffic. How the whole thing might be implemented operationally, Mückstein is now to negotiate with the parliamentary parties. However, it is only regarding “technical details”, says Nehammer. In the event of non-compliance there should be “naturally” fines.
