www.konjunkturpaket-info.de: New website on the second economic stimulus package provided by Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek

What legal principles were introduced for the implementation of the economic stimulus package? What requirements are regulated by the State in the German Act on Future Investments? What should states and municipalities pay attention to in particular? What requirements will arise for them?

The economic advisory law firm Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek provides answers to these questions on its new Internet platform www.konjunkturpaket-info.de as of now. There, the law firm provides comprehensive information on the second economic stimulus package for municipalities and the public sector as a whole. With up-to-date contributions, the firm provides prompt advice on new developments and the legal basis for the implementation of the economic stimulus package.

"We have summarized important information for administrations and decision makers on our new information platform," explains Dr. Ute Jasper, Partner at the Düsseldorf office of the law firm and head of the Public Sector Practice Group. "We provide a comprehensive overview of the legal basis introduced, explain the requirements for receiving the investments and provide up-to-date commentary on the corresponding legislation. In doing so, we focus on all states and their own particularities."

With the new platform, Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek intends to deal with the high level of demand for information from towns, municipalities and districts and provides information on the background and consequences of the investments. According to Jasper, this includes, for example, administrative instructions on how to increase the threshold value for direct awarding and limited tendering within the second economic stimulus package.

In addition to comments and explanations, the website includes a comprehensive list of links that refer to the leading state ministries, the appropriate contacts, as well as their websites providing information on the second economic stimulus package. This bundled list provides a clearly laid-out service for website visitors at www.konjunkturpaket-info.de.

In addition, interested parties may send questions on current events to the experts at Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek and share their own experiences with the second economic stimulus package. "The offering of www.konjunkturpaket-info.de makes us the first law firm in Germany that not only provides the background information, but also offers the chance of a direct exchange of information," says Jasper.
