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.

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.
