Does Luxembourg need a memory clinic?

More and more people are getting older. This also increases the risk of developing dementia. The DP MP Gusty Graas asked the Minister of Health how many people have taken part in the "Dementia Prevention Programme" so far and whether it would make sense to set up a memory clinic in this country.

Question

« L’évolution démographique se traduit par un nombre croissant de personnes de plus en plus âgées. La fréquence des maladies chroniques et le risque de démence augmentent également.

Afin de prévenir la démence, le ministère de la Santé a lancé en 2015 le « Programme Démence Prévention » (pdp).

À ce sujet, j’aimerais poser les questions suivantes à Madame la Ministre de la Santé :

  • Combien de personnes ont participé au « Programme Démence Prévention » depuis 2015 ?
  • Quel était l’âge moyen des participants au  « pdp » ?
  • Madame la Ministre, estime-t-elle que les personnes âgées de 30 à 40 ans devraient également être davantage sensibilisées à l’offre du « pdp » ?
  • Madame la Ministre, que pense-t-elle de l’idée de créer un Centre Mémoire (« Gedächtnisambulanz ») au Luxembourg ?»

More legal certainty before the labour court?

If a staff representative has been suspended due to serious misconduct, an employer can request that the employment relationship be terminated in court, e.g. via a counterclaim. However, DP MPs Corinne Cahen and Carole Hartmann were informed that the President of the Labour Court repeatedly rejects these applications. This leads to problems in the enforcement of labour law and to legal and financial difficulties for the employer. The DP MPs therefore wanted to know from the Minister of Labour how he interprets the relevant paragraph in the Labour Code, whether the rejection of the counterclaim by the President of the Labour Court is in accordance with the law and whether more legal certainty should be provided.
