Public service administrations in the ‘Nordstad’

In an interview, the Minister for Spatial Planning expressed the wish that a number of administrations should settle in the 'Nordstad'. As a city close to the river and close to nature, the 'Nordstad' has immense prospect which the government would like to develop in cooperation and in dialogue with the communes. What kind of administrations are they and where are they going to be set up? Member of Parliament André Bauler has asked the responsible ministries.

« De 27. Februar 2021 huet den Här Minister vun der Landesplanung an engem Interview gewënscht, datt sech nach eng Rei Verwaltungen an der Nordstad sollen néierloossen. D’Regierung géif doriwwer nodenken. D’Nordstad hätt als Stad um Floss a Stad an der Natur en immensen Atout, an d’Regierung géing elo am Dialog mat de Gemengen dru schaffen dësen Atout auszebauen. Datt méi Verwaltungen an den Norde solle kommen ass sécherlech e wichtege Schratt a Richtung administrativ Dezentraliséierung. An dofir däerf et net beim fromme Wonsch bleiwen.

An deem Kontext wéilt ech folgend Froen un den Här Minister fir Landesplanung stellen:

  • U wat fir Verwaltungen huet den Här Minister geduecht, wéi hie gemengt huet, där missten nach an d’Nordstad an aner regional Zentre vum Norde kommen? Wéi gesäit hien déi administrativ Entwécklung am Nordbezierk iwwer déi nächst fënnef Joer?
  • Ass d‘Ausso vum Här Minister am Interview vum 27. Februar just eng Iwwerleeung oder gëtt et mëttlerweil en interministerielle Grupp, deen sech konkret mat dëser Thematik befaasse soll?
  • Wat fir Conclusiounen huet den Här Minister zesumme mam Comité politique Nordstad an dësem präzise Kontext gezunn? Gëtt et do mëttlerweil méi grëffeg Schlussfolgerungen, och am Zesummenhang mat der geplangter Fusioun?
  • Gëtt dru geduecht fir Co-Working Spaces an der Nordstad an op anere Plazen am Nordbezierk, besonnesch an de Kantone Réiden, Woltz a Clierf,  anzeriichten, dëst fir den Teletravail ze fërderen a gläichzäiteg déi sozial Kontakter tëscht de Beamten ze ënnerstëtzen? Gouf et do schonn en Austausch mam Ministère vun der ëffentlecher Funktioun?
  • Wéi kann een d’Diskussioun ronderëm déi administrativ Dezentraliséierung nei beliewen fir datt se méi nohalteg gëtt an net all Kéier riskéiert bei Ukënnegungen ze bleiwen?
  • Sinn dem Här Minister Sitte bekannt, op deenen een am Norden Infrastrukture kéint schafe fir nei Verwaltungen oder staatlech Zerwisser unzezéien? Féiert hien an deem Sënn Gespréicher mat de Gemengen?»

Answer

The minister’s declarations are in line with the general aim of a national state policy that aims to create optimal living conditions and promote sustainable development through decentralization. The works on a national strategy “Vision Nordstad 2035” are in full swing and will be completed over the coming months. The ‘Nordstad’ is to become the third development pole in the country and to function as a “door to the north”. The state also rents additional administrative spaces in the ‘Nordstad’, which should allow for its administration and services to further develop in this region as well.

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.
