Right. But why was the ban enacted?

[–] TanteRegenbogen@feddit.de 1 points 11 months ago

It is in the quote text. It says that public sector administration has to be religiously and politically neutral and any overt symbols or clothing of said convictions cannot be allowed by administrative staff.

I even link the entire statement of the court and you didn't even bother to read it.
