Rasmus Prehn warns, however, that there will be major odor nuisances for citizens for a period of a few weeks.
Therefore, the government wants to set aside extra money for the excavation to ensure that the excavation and incineration of mink can proceed smoothly.
– I think it is unfortunate and unreasonable for citizens in the local area if we have to stop the excavation, to revisit the Finance Committee to get extra funds. That is why we need a buffer, says the minister.
He was called in consultation by the Liberal Party and the Danish People’s Party, who are critical of the fact that significantly more money is set aside than the 72.2 million kroner that the task is estimated to cost.
However, this is due to the consideration for the citizens combined with the fact that the authorities have never before had the task of excavating and disposing of four million mink, says Rasmus Prehn.
The Minister states that it will take a total of two months to dispose of the minks. About a month at each of the two locations.
