Global minimum taxation of multinationals

The global minimum tax of 15% on the worldwide profits of multinationals is expected to bring billions in revenue to the state from 2026, according to various estimates. Our deputies André Bauler and Patrick Goldschmidt have asked the Minister of Finance whether he shares this estimate.

„An der Zäitschrëft „Fonction publique“ gëtt vu gewerkschaftlecher Säit aus behaapt, datt de Staat vun 2026 un, tëscht fënnef a fofzéng Milliarden Euro zousätzlech pro Joer duerch déi nei 15%-Mindeststeier op de globale Profitter vun internationale Grousskonzerner géif kasséieren. Dëst hätten, wann een dem Auteur vun engem Artikel aus dem Périodique „Fonction publique“ Glawe schenke kann, déi „weltwäit kompetentst Fiskalexperten“ ausgerechent.

An deem Kader wollte mir dem Här Finanzminister follgend Froe stellen:

  1. Gëtt et mëttlerweil Studien, mat Hëllef vun deenen ee viraussoe kann, wat den Impakt vun der Mindeststeier op eis Staatsfinanze wäert sinn?
  2. Wéi positionéiert sech den Här Finanzminister zu den Aussoen, déi an der Oktobernummer vun der Zäitschrëft „Fonction publique“ formuléiert goufen?“

Answer

Op OECD Niveau goufe virun e puer Joren global Studie gemaach, wou d‘Conclusiounen tëschent engem negativen Impakt bis zu engem positiven Impakt staark variéieren, déi doduerch wéineg nëtzlech fir esou Schätzungen sinn. Déi vum Untragsteller genannten Etüd ass do net méi hëllefräich. 

Wéint de ville Variabelen, déi och schonn an der Äntwert op d’parlamentaresch Fro n°1137 ugefouert goufen, ass et weiderhin schwiereg eng valabel quantifizéiert Schätzung vum Impakt ze ginn.

How long are the waiting times at the “Travel Clinic”?

If you are travelling to tropical regions, you can get advice and be vaccinated against various diseases at the CHL’s “Travel Clinic”. However, the waiting times at this clinic are currently said to be quite long.
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.
