Luxembourg Airport continues to grow, in both passenger and cargo traffic. Currently, around 5.3 million passengers pass through Findel each year. Over the past decade, this represents an increase of 100 percent.

A bridge for pedestrians and cyclists between the station Cents-Hamm and Hamm could make public transport more interesting for many people who work or go to school in Hamm, and the route significantly safer. The DP MP Corinne Cahen therefore asked the Minister for Mobility and Public Works Yuriko Backes whether the construction of such a walkway was conceivable.

The minister of finance, Yuriko Backes, has announced further tax relief worth 500 million euros. The current budgetary situation enables the purchasing power of the people to be strengthened up to the middle class.

As Minister of Finance, a natural priority is to ensure that our public finances remain sound. This is because we want to prepare our country for the future by focusing on sustainable development and investing in digital development.

Following the unanimous decision of the DP board, Prime Minister Xavier Bettel will propose to the Grand Duke Yuriko Backes as the new Minister of Finance.
