Grant Hendrik Tonne (born June 22, 1976)[1] is a german politician (SPD). He is a member of the Lower Saxony state parliament and has been Lower Saxony's Minister of Education since 2017.
Life and career
[edit]After receiving his Abitur in 1995 in Petershagen, Tonne studied law at the University of Bremen, which he completed with the first legal state examination. After completing his Referendariat, he also passed the second state examination. He then worked as an independent lawyer in Stolzenau until 2017.[2]
Tonne is married and has four children.
Party
[edit]Tonne joined the SPD and the Jusos in 1996 and was chairman of the Juso subdistrict Nienburg/Weser from 1999 to 2002 and from 2006 to 2007. He has been a member of the executive committee of the SPD subdistrict of Nienburg since 1999.
Deputy
[edit]Tonne has been a member of the Gemeinderat of Leese since 1996 and also of the Landesbergen council since 2001, as well as the Kreistag of the Landkreis Nienburg. In the district council, he was chairman of the committee for vocational schools and deputy chairman of the district council.
In the state elections 2008, 2013 and 2017, Tonne stood for the SPD in the Nienburg/Schaumburg election district and on the SPD Landesliste. Although he lost in the constituency each time to the CDU candidate Karsten Heineking, he moved in 2008 and 2013 on the state list in parliament. Thus he belonged to the Lower Saxony State Parliament from 2008 to 2017. From 2013 to 2017, he was parliamentary director of the SPD state parliamentary group. When the SPD won numerous direct mandates in the 2017 state election, the state list did not draw, so Tonne left the state parliament as a member. On April 23, 2020, he succeeded Dirk Adomat, who had resigned his seat in the state parliament after being elected Landrat of the district Hameln-Pyrmont.
Public offices
[edit]Tonne was initially deputy mayor of the municipality of Leese from 2001, until he was finally elected honorary mayor in 2006. In June 2018, he resigned.[3]
After the 2017 state election, he became Minister of Education of Lower Saxony in the 2nd Weil Cabinet.[4]
