how many farm shops are there in Luxembourg?

The pandemic has led many people to re-evaluate the benefits of regional products. In particular the purchase of meat products, vegetables and fruits, eggs and even milk directly on the farm seems to have increased in recent months. DP MPs André Bauler and Gusty Graas have asked the Minister of Agriculture how the number of farm shops has changed in recent years.

„Duerch d‘Pandemie hu vill Leit d’Virdeeler vu regionale Produkter erëm schätze geléiert. Besonnesch d’Kafe vu Fleeschproduiten, Geméis an Uebst, Eeër an och Mëllech direkt um Bauerenhaff schéngt déi lescht Méint zougeholl ze hunn. Sief et um Haffbuttek, mat engem Automat, engem Eeër- oder Mëllechfrigo oder enger Mëllechtankstell, d’Kreativitéit vun eise Baueren ass ganz grouss. Meeschtens fonctionéieren dës Verkafsstellen ouni Personal, esou datt de Client d’Suen an eng Këscht geheit oder souguer per Digicash bezilt.

An deem Kader wollte mir dem Här Minister fir Landwirtschaft, Wäibau a ländlech Entwécklung folgend Froe stellen:

  • Wéi vill Bauerebetriber féieren ewell en Haffbuttek oder änlech Strukturen nom Prinzip vum Self-Service (Frigo, Automat etc)?
  • Wat fir Produkter ginn am heefegsten ugebueden? Verkafen dës Betriber just Produkter vum eegenen Haff oder och nach aner Produkter? 
  • Wéi huet sech d’Unzuel u Betriber, déi an der Direktvermaartung aktiv sinn, an de leschte Joren entwéckelt?“

How long are the waiting times at the “Travel Clinic”?

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.
