All the while the Left-politician Jakob Engel-Schmidt has been on a leave of absence from the Danish Parliament to work as the first director and now a lobbyist, he is cunning show secured the right to retain its cool folketingsløn for up to 19 months after the election.
he has, because he at no time has requested its mandate, but instead milked the Parliamentary edged orlovsordning.
On the way, in the past, advancing the Left-lion managed to earn one month’s folketingsløn in the so-called eftervederlag, for each two months he is on leave.
the Extra Leaf can tell that the Parliamentary rules of eftervederlag is so favourable put together of politicians, even so-called private leave – which can be used, while the politician work and earn money in the private or the public – triggers the right to eftervederlag.
doing so will Jakob Engel-Schmidt earn the right to retain its folketingsløn of 55,000 kronor per month for up to 19 months after the next election.
He becomes the first 139.000 dollars he earns in his lobbyist job, not offset in the eftervederlaget.
Jakob Engel-Schmidt took the Danish Parliament 3. march 2016, when he came in as an substitute for Morten Løkkegaard, who went to Brussels.
Half a year later 1. October 2017 dropped, he is once again democracy to be the vocational school director. But he did cleverly is not its mandate. He took in the site private leave and continued accumulation of eftervederlag in his “director’s chair”.
When he in may 2018 was transferred to paid sick leave from the Parliament, it happened in the aftermath of the Ekstra detection of his narkokørsel.
this week is the Angel-Schmidt gone back to the private leave, after he has been employed as a lobbyist with the company Rud Pedersen. Thus earn eftervederlaget all the way up to the date of the elections.
Hence he will probably have been away from the Fortress for more than half of his length of membership in Parliament, when his political career ends in this place.
By this period, he has at the time of writing been privatansat in total four months, while at the same time he has earned eftervederlag. A period that can increase to almost eight months, if Lars Løkke Rasmussen draws valgudskrivelsen to the last chance.

It should be
Several parties criticize now that Jakob Engel-Schmidt can earn dobbeltløn from the Danish Parliament, while he was working in the private sector.
– It is, I think, is wrong. It is just another example of the politicians ‘ rules are different than for the other danes say the Danish people’s party group chairman, Peter Skaarup.
– It should not be such that one can make eftervederlag, when one does not perform his work as an elected politician. We would like to be with to make. And there must be so good early termination, both as a lobbyist and at Niels Brock, that one should not use the Parliament as a safety net, says the group chairman.
Also the Unity finansordfører, Pelle Dragsted, criticises the politicians ‘ favorable rules.
– You should not be able to earn eftervederlag while you hold a second job. It should be obvious, says Pelle Dragsted.
– It is yet another example of that that has not been cleared up in the politicians ‘ privileges. I would encourage our member of the Bureau to raise the issue there, and if they do not act, then we will make a proposal in the Danish Parliament, which closes the gap. It is, of course, ultimately, the danes ‘ money, we are talking about.

Engel-Schmidt: I will stand on the bar bottom
Jakob Engel-Schmidt considers his eftervederlag from the Danish Parliament as a safety net in the event that he gets a relapse on top of the stressreaktion that hit him after news of his cocaine-drive came forward.

’I’ve been on sick leave and is now raskmeldt. I am counting on this to continue to be. But at the stresssygdomme there is a risk of relapse, so I had got my mandate, I would stand on the bar bottom, if the disease were to return. It is neither raining or I expect will happen. And as long as I earn my own money, eftervederlaget deducted.’
Jakob Engel-Schmidt explains, furthermore, that there is a good explanation on why he did not change his leave of absence from the paid sick leave for leave for other reasons, as he in Ekstra Bladet said he was fresh again in december:
’I’m doing the interview in the middle of december, because I can feel that I’m about to be ready. But it does not happen from one day to the other, for my part.’
