The Mink Commission (Danish: Minkkommissionen) formally the Commission of Inquiry into the Case of the Culling of Mink (Danish: Granskningskommissionen om sagen om aflivning af mink) is a Danish investigative commission set up by a majority in the Folketing in 2020 to investigate The Mink Case (Danish: Minksagen); the culling of all minks in Denmark during the COVID-19 pandemic. It began its work on 23 April 2021. The commission consists of national judge Michael Kistrup, who is chairman, as well as law professor Helle Krunke from the University of Copenhagen and lawyer Ole Spiermann from the firm Bruun & Hjejle.
The Commission delivered its report on 30 June 2022,[1] stating that the killing of all Danish mink had no legal justification, and that Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen and the Danish government, particularly former Minister for Food, Mogens Jensen, had "grossly misled" the public, however it also stated that Frederiksen was not aware of the lack of legal basis when she publicly announced the culling.[2][3] The report led the Social Liberals to threaten to rescind their support for the coalition government (thus resulting in a vote of no confidence) unless it called for a general election.[4] A general election was held on 1 November 2022.[4]
