Use of assistants for partially automated driving on our roads?

In Germany, a car manufacturer was recently given permission to use its system of automated driving in road traffic under specific conditions. DP MP Max Hahn asked if this system was also authorised in Luxembourg and how the government wants to deal with these technological developments.

„Als éischte Constructeur iwwerhaapt krut Mercedes rezent an Däitschland d’Erlaabnis säi System vum automatiséierte Fueren „Drive Pilot“ am Stroosseverkéier ënner ganz spezifesche Bedéngungen anzesetzen. Sou dierf deen Assistent am Stau op der Autobunn bis zu enger Vitesse vu 60 km/h komplett d’Kontroll iwwerhuelen, de Chauffeur dierf dann esouguer ganz legal den Handy benotzen.

An deem Kader wollt ech dem Här Minister fir Mobilitéit an ëffentlech Aarbechte folgend Froe stellen:

  • Ass den Här Minister au courant vun dëser Decisioun vun eisen däitschen Noperen?
  • Wäert den Asaz vum „Drive Pilot“ och zu Lëtzebuerg erlaabt sinn? Wa jo, wat wieren d’Bedéngungen? Wann net, wat wieren d’Grënn dofir?
  • Wéi preparéiert Lëtzebuerg sech dorop, dass an Zukunft ëmmer méi esou Systemer op de Marché kommen? Ass virgesinn de legale Kader unzepassen, fir d’Benotze vun dëse Systemer zu Lëtzebuerg ze erméiglechen?

Answer

Den honorabelen Deputéierte Max Hahn stellt sech Froen iwwert de System Drive Pilot vu Mercedes-Benz, deen d’autonoomt Fuere vu Gefierer op der ëffentlecher Strooss ënner gewëssen Oplagen erméiglecht.

An dësem Zesummenhang erlaben ech mir fir op meng Äntwert op d’parlamentaresch Fro n°5403 vum 17. Dezember 2021 vum honorabelen Deputéierte Marc Goergen iwwert d’autonoomt Fueren ze verweisen.

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.
