“Klibberen” as immaterial cultural heritage?

Ringing the rattle "Klibberen" is an old tradition in Luxembourg. The altar servers have launched an initiative to have this tradition included in the national list of intangible cultural heritage. Our MP André Bauler welcomes their initiative and asked the Minister of Culture whether she would be willing to support the altar servers in this process, or even to register the tradition of "Klibberen" as intangible cultural heritage.

„D’Klibberen ass eng al Traditioun aus dem Elsass a vu Lëtzebuerg wou d’Kanner vu Gréngen Donneschdeg bis Ouschtersonndeg d’Kiercheklacken ersetzen a Moies, Mëttes an Owes mat hire Klibberen duerch d’Stroosse ginn.

D’Lëtzebuerger Wort schreift haut, datt déi Verantwortlech vun de Lëtzebuerger Massendénger derfir suerge wëllen, datt d’Klibberen op déi national Lëscht vum immaterielle Kulturierwen opgeholl gëtt. Dofir maachen si en Opruff un d’Bevëlkerung fir Dokumentatiounsmaterial ze kréien an hire Froebou op hirem Internetsite auszefëllen. Dës Initiative ass begréissenswäert a soll deementspriechend och ënnerstëtzt ginn.

An deem Kontext wollt ech der Madamm Kulturministesch folgend Froe stellen:

  1. Wéi steet d’Madamm Ministesch zu der Initiative vun de Lëtzebuerger Massendénger?
  2. Wier d’Madamm Ministesch bereet d’Klibberen op déi national Lëscht vum Kulturierwen opzehuelen?Wa jo, ënner wat fir enge Bedéngungen?
  3. Ass d’Madamm Ministesch bereet, de Promoteure vun dëser Initiative mat Rot an Dot zur Säit ze stoen an hinnen Experten, z.B. aus staatleche Verwaltungen, unzeginn, déi si an hirer Aarbecht begleede kënnen?

Do rapid diagnostic tests help against antibiotic shortages?

France is considering only allowing antibiotics to be prescribed if a rapid diagnostic test is carried out beforehand. This would make it possible to determine with certainty whether the infection is bacterial or viral.
This could on the one hand counteract the lack of antibiotics and on the other hand reduce antibiotic resistance.
DP MPs Gilles Baum and Gusty Graas asked the Minister of Health how many antibiotics have been prescribed in Luxembourg in the last five years and whether doctors should be made more aware of prescribing diagnostic tests.

Is therapeutic housing being commercialised?

Therapeutic housing is currently offered by approved outpatient psychiatric services to people suffering from mental health problems.
Rumours are now circulating that the Ministry of Health is planning to entrust the management of therapeutic housing to a commercial company.
DP MPs Gusty Graas and Gilles Baum asked the Minister for Health whether these rumours were true and, if so, why this course of action was being pursued rather than supporting the existing players in approved outpatient psychiatry.
