The Federal Administrative Court admitted the legal appeal (Rechtsbeschwerde) filed by the applicant, granting them procedural relief at the cost of the opposing party, thereby advancing the case for substantive review. The dispute concerns the scope of the information rights of the works council under public service law, specifically whether the entitlement to information extends to matters governed by the obligation to negotiate a collective agreement. The court determined that the appeal met the threshold for admission under § 83 Abs. 2 BPersVG in conjunction with § 72 Abs. 2 Nr. 1 and § 92 Abs. 1 Satz 2 ArbGG, as it involves a decisive legal question of fundamental significance. The core legal issue hinges on the interplay between the works council's right to information under § 67 Abs. 1 Satz 1, § 68 Abs. 1 Nr. 2 and Abs. 2 BPersVG and the employer's statutory duty to initiate negotiations under § 77 Abs. 1 Satz 2 BPersVG.
