Excessive speed on the N7 between Diekirch and Hosingen

The N7 national road has always been known for its speeding offences. Recently, there were many vans that exceeded the speed limit between the Fridhaff roundabout and the Hosingen roundabout. Most of them were on their way to Belgium in the early evening hours. In this context, our MP André Bauler asked the ministers in charge how many accidents have occurred on this road during the last few years and whether it would be possible to increase the number of traffic controls.

„Mir ass dëse Weekend vu besuergte Leit matgedeelt ginn, datt op der N7 tëscht dem Rond-Point Fridhaff an dem Rond-Point Housen ëmmer méi gerannt gëtt, sou datt et dacks zu ganz geféierleche Manöveren duerch eng vill ze héich Vitess kënnt – virun allem an den Owesstonnen, wa vill Camionnette Richtung belsch Grenz heem fueren. 

Fir sou risikoräich Beweegungen ze vermeiden, schéngen och déi fix Radaren näischt ze déngen, well jo bekannt ass, wou dës installéiert sinn.

An deem Kader géif ech dem Här Policeminister an dem Här Mobilitéitsminister gäre folgend Froe stellen: 

  • Ass den Här Minister bereet fir d’Kontrollen op dësem Deel vun der N7 zu de bekannte Stonnen ze verstäerken?
  • Wéi vill Accidenter goufen zanter Mäerz 2016 op der N7 tëscht Dikrech an der Schmëdd gezielt? Wat waren dat fir Accidenter?
  • Ass den Här Minister gewëllt, fir d’Automobilisten op dëser Strooss duerch geziilt Aktiounen oder spezifesch Panneauen ze sensibiliséieren, se sou op Geforen opmierksam ze maachen a se dozou ze féieren, déi virgeschriwwe Maximalvitess ze respektéieren?“

If you are travelling to tropical regions, you can get advice and be vaccinated against various diseases at the CHL’s “Travel Clinic”. However, the waiting times at this clinic are currently said to be quite long.
DP MPs Dr Gérard Schockmel and Gilles Baum have asked the Minister of Health how many patients have been seen at the “Travel Clinic” over the last ten years, how waiting times have developed over this period and whether it would not make sense to make it possible to book appointments online, as is the case with many other CHL services.

Medical referrals abroad

Since 1 June 2025, doctors have to fill out a new form if they want to send a patient abroad for treatment. The doctor must now indicate whether or not the services can be provided in Luxembourg within an ‘acceptable period’. If the doctor indicates that the services could actually be provided in Luxembourg, the referral request is automatically rejected.
DP MP Dr Gérard Schockmel has asked the Minister of Health whether the mere reduction to the ‘acceptable period’, without taking into account the quality of care, might not lead to unjustified rejections and whether the new form might not force doctors to provide false information in order to guarantee their patients the best possible care.
