What are the reasons for the long delays in the payment of the premium for sustainable mobility?

It has come to attention of the deputies of the DP Carole Hartmann and Max Hahn that many people wait several months for the payment of the premium for sustainable mobility. This is why they have inquired with the competent minister to find out what are the reasons for this and what is being done to speed up the procedure.

« Il nous revient que beaucoup de personnes ayant introduit une demande pour la prime pour une mobilité durable « clever fueren » doivent attendre plusieurs mois avant de se voir verser la prime en question.

Dans ce contexte nous aimerions poser les questions suivantes à Madame la Ministre de l’Environnement, du Climat et du Développement durable :

– Combien de primes, réparties par catégorie (vélo, pedelec, voiture électrique etc.), ont été accordées depuis son introduction en mars 2020 ? Combien de ces primes ont déjà été versées ?

– Madame la Ministre peut-elle informer sur la durée moyenne entre la réception de la demande pour une prime et le versement effectif de celle-ci ?

– Le cas échéant, de quelle manière ce délai pourrait-il être raccourci ? »

Answer

The Minister stated in her reply that since March 2019, 12,200 applications for the premium “Clever fueren” had been approved, the majority of which were for a bicycle (5600) or a pedelec (4900). Due to the huge demand for a soft mobility premium, the normal payment period for the premiums increased from four weeks to six months, a situation which, however, should be improved as soon as possible by internal reassignments and new appointments.

DP MPs Dr Gérard Schockmel and Gilles Baum have asked the Minister of Health how many patients have been seen at the “Travel Clinic” over the last ten years, how waiting times have developed over this period and whether it would not make sense to make it possible to book appointments online, as is the case with many other CHL services.

Medical referrals abroad

Since 1 June 2025, doctors have to fill out a new form if they want to send a patient abroad for treatment. The doctor must now indicate whether or not the services can be provided in Luxembourg within an ‘acceptable period’. If the doctor indicates that the services could actually be provided in Luxembourg, the referral request is automatically rejected.
DP MP Dr Gérard Schockmel has asked the Minister of Health whether the mere reduction to the ‘acceptable period’, without taking into account the quality of care, might not lead to unjustified rejections and whether the new form might not force doctors to provide false information in order to guarantee their patients the best possible care.
