Are there plans to further develop the Cattenom nuclear plant?

As it was recently reported in the press, the mayor of Cattenom submitted his municipality's candidacy for new reactors to be built there. The DP MPs Gusty Graas and Max Hahn asked what the government's position on this matter is, and whether there are projects in the field of renewable energies with France to encourage our neighbors to close Cattenom.

« Tel qu’il a été relayé récemment dans la presse écrite, le maire de Cattenom aurait lancé la candidature de sa commune pour accueillir la construction de deux des six nouveaux réacteurs EPR annoncés par le président de la République française.

Dans ce cadre nous aimerions poser les questions suivantes à Monsieur le Ministre de l’Énergie et à Monsieur le Ministre des Affaires étrangères et européennes :

  • Le gouvernement est-il en contact avec la commune de Cattenom à ce sujet ? Quelle est la position du gouvernement en la matière ?
  • Selon Messieurs les Ministres, quelle est la probabilité qu’une extension de la centrale nucléaire de Cattenom se produise effectivement ?
  • Y a-t-il des projets énergétiques basés sur les énergies renouvelables conjoints avec la France actuellement en cours d’élaboration ?
  • Dans l’affirmative, le gouvernement peut-il fournir des précisions quant à ces projets ?
  • Dans la négative, est-il prévu de lancer des projets énergétiques basés sur les énergies renouvelables conjoints avec notre voisin français dans l’optique d’encourager par ce biais la fermeture de la centrale nucléaire de Cattenom ? »

ITM controls in the gastronomy sector

The ITM sees supporting businesses and prevention as its priorities.

In this context, DP MPs Corinne Cahen and Carole Hartmann wanted to know from the Minister of Labour, among other things, how many inspections have been carried out in the gastronomy sector in the last 5 years, how many sanctions have been imposed immediately after an inspection and how many sanctions have been reduced or lifted.
