Follow live: Grapperhaus fills up during debate | Inland

Follow the debate below from 5 p.m. via the tweets of parliamentary reporter Elif Isitman.

The credibility of the CDA minister is at stake after new footage of the wedding party in the villa village of Bloemendaal. It can be seen how Grapperhaus itself does not take it so closely with the corona rules.

“I am sorry,” says Grapperhaus. “As a minister I should set a good example. All preparations were aimed at making it a safe and beautiful day. ”

Misjudged

The minister says he has canceled the original plan of the wedding to keep it small and safe. “I misjudged it. People have come too close together, ”says Grapperhaus. “I also misjudged myself. When I saw the photos, I realized: I didn’t do it right myself. ”

The justice minister says that he can continue to operate ‘credibly’. “I unreservedly support the corona policy.”

Critical

The House of Representatives is critical of the Grapperhaus issue. The coalition mainly makes a point of its credibility. The opposition is pressuring the cabinet to ease penalties for violations.

PVV leader Geert Wilders wants all corona fines to be refunded. Several parties want to get rid of the entry in the criminal record. Coalition party VVD wants the memorandum to be temporary.
