Troisvierges – Another closure of a post office branch ?

Over the past five years, many post offices have been closed and replaced by alternative distribution channels, such as ATMs and online services. In this context, our deputy André Bauler asked the Minister of the Economy about the future of the post office in Troisvierges.

« Je viens d’apprendre que le bureau de poste de Troisvierges risquerait d’être fermé dans un avenir proche. Or, il y a peu de temps, le bureau en question avait été réaménagé pour répondre au mieux aux besoins de la clientèle régionale. Il est donc surprenant qu’une telle décision puisse être prise quelques mois après.

Voilà pourquoi j’aimerais poser les questions suivantes à Monsieur le Ministre de l’Économie :

  • Monsieur le Ministre peut-il confirmer cette décision ?
  • Dans l’affirmative, quelles en seraient les raisons ? Endéans quels délais cette fermeture aurait-elle lieu? Combien de clients et d’employés seraient concernés directement par cette décision ?
  • Monsieur le Ministre n’est-il pas d’avis que de telles décisions ont un effet négatif sur la vie sociale et sur le futur économique de tout un village qui vit en partie du commerce local ? »

How has the situation of “Dubliners” in Luxembourg developed over the past few years?

But how have the numbers developed over the past few years and how did we get into this situation? Our MPs Corinne Cahen and Gusty Graas inquired with the relevant ministry.

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.
