Meat consumption in Luxembourg

While the annual consumption of meat in Germany decreased by 430 grams in 2023, an increase was observed in the category of poultry. DP MPs André Bauler and Luc Emering asked the Minister of Agriculture, Food and Viticulture whether the statistics for Luxembourg are similar, what developments have been noticed with regards to the meat production in Luxembourg, from where and how much meat we import and how meat substitutes are developing in the country.

Question

„An Däitschland huet d’”Bundesinformationszentrum Landwirtschaft” kierzlech matgedeelt, datt den duerchschnëttleche Joreskonsum vu Fleesch am Joer 2023 ëm 430 Gramm op 51,6 Kilogramm gefall ass. De gréisste Réckgang hätt et beim Rand- a Kalleffleesch ginn (-5%). Beim Gefligel huet den Informatiounszenter dogéint eng Hausse festgestallt (vun 12,2 op 13,1 Kilogramm).

An deem Zesummenhank wollte mir der Madamm Ministesch fir Landwirtschaft, Ernärung a Wäibau follgend Froe stellen:

1. Gëtt et an deem Kontext vergläichbar Statistike fir Lëtzebuerg?

2. Wéi huet sech d’Fleeschproduktioun hei am Land an de leschten 10 Joer entwéckelt? Wéi vill Fleesch, dat heiheem produzéiert gëtt, gëtt an d’Ausland exportéiert?

3. Aus wat fir engen EU-Länner an Iwwerséilänner importéiere mer Fleesch? Wat stellen dës Importer am gesamte Fleeschkonsum hei zu Lëtzebuerg duer?

4. Wéi hu sech d’Fleeschersatzprodukter am Verglach zum klassesche Fleeschkonsum entwéckelt?“

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.
