The Bavarian Parliament has passed several new laws, including stricter regulations on cannabis consumption and increased military presence in schools.
The new cannabis law prohibits consumption in public buildings, schools, and outdoor areas of restaurants and festivals.
This move comes as Bavaria aims to implement the federal cannabis legalization 'extremely restrictively'.
Additionally, the parliament approved a law to enhance the Bundeswehr's presence in state schools, requiring cooperation with youth officers.
This decision has sparked controversy, with critics fearing a 'militarization of education'.
The parliament also modified the selection process for constitutional court judges, potentially excluding AfD candidates in the future.
These legislative changes reflect Bavaria's conservative approach to recent federal reforms and societal shifts.
