Ingrid Roitzsch

Ingrid Roitzsch (born Ingrid Höhle: 30 July 1940 – 31 January 2011) was a German journalist and politician (CDU). She served between 1992 and 1993 as parliamentary secretary of state (loosely, "junior minister") at the Ministry of Defence.

Some thought her controversial. After leaving politics she worked in public relations for the cigarette industry.

She entered the Bundestag (West German national parliament) as a CDU "list candidate" in 1980. At the next election, in 1983, she was successful in a closely fought contest against Reinhard Ueberhorst (SPD), as a directly elected candidate representing the Pinneberg electoral district. For the rest of her fourteen years in the Bundestag she would continue to sit as a directly elected member on behalf of the Pinneberg electoral district. In the parliamentary party she served as a party business manager ("parlamentarische Geschäftsführerin") for the CDU/CSU parliamentary group. This went alongside a more general advocacy of equal rights for women.
