International security on football events

On 19 March 2021, the Benelux Interparliamentary Assembly adopted a motion for a recommendation on international security on football events and the fight against racism. Our MP, Gusty Graas, asked the ministers in charge, among other things, how the Benelux countries could optimize the exchange of information and whether it would be appropriate to prevent hooligans from travelling to another country. More generally, Mr Graas wanted to know how the Luxembourg government intended to deal with the recommended motion.

« Lors de sa séance plénière du 19 mars dernier, l’Assemblée interparlementaire Benelux a adopté une proposition de recommandation concernant la sécurité internationale dans le football et la lutte contre le racisme. Notre pays non plus ne peut ignorer ce problème sociétal.

Dans ce contexte j’aimerais poser les questions suivantes à Monsieur le Ministre des Sports et à Monsieur le Ministre de la Sécurité intérieure :

  • Comment les pays du Benelux peuvent optimiser l’échange d’informations relatif aux événements sportifs à risques ?
  • Est-ce que des interdictions de sortie de territoire pour empêcher les hooligans de se rendre dans d’autres pays sont opportunes ?
  • Est-ce que Messieurs les Ministres le jugent-ils nécessaire de renforcer les campagnes de sensibilisation relatives à la lutte contre toutes formes de violences dans les stades ?
  • En général, quelles suites le Gouvernement luxembourgeois entend-il réserver à cette proposition de recommandation de l’Assemblée parlementaire Benelux ? »

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.
