After being in the “scandal” spotlight a bit too many times lately, the Parliament decided to increase the supervision powers on the intelligence agencies, aka secret services. The responsibilities and funding of the supervision authority, TET (Tilsynet med Eftertertingstjenesterne), will be expanded. 

After gender-neutral toilets in Aalborg, now we have a proposal for gender-neutral changing rooms in Frederiksberg. Unlike the proposal from Aalborg, which aims to create a single common space, the discussion in Frederiksberg is about a third option, in addition to  women’s and men’s changing rooms. 

The EU Commission has proposed to change the wolf’s protected status. Several parties in Denmark support the idea of being allowed to hunt wolves and want Denmark to vote “Yes” to the proposal. We have 30 adult wolves and 20 puppies in Denmark. 

The Venstre (Liberal) member of the Parliament, Jan E. Jørgensen, called upon the workers from the Danish shoe company Ecco to boycott until the company exits the Russian market. According to him, working for this company is like working for the Germans during the occupation of Denmark. The leader of Venstre does not support Jan’s statements.
