The state government had more to do with the debacle in the expansion of the Munich S-Bahn than the public should know. What was determined at a meeting with Transport Minister Scheuer with regard to the federal election is revealing.
Markus Söder was indignant and clueless. The fact that his state government is not tackling a sensitive issue because of an election campaign is “nonsense”.

According to Duden, dilatory means: postponed, delayed.
