Troisvierges – Another closure of a post office branch ?

Over the past five years, many post offices have been closed and replaced by alternative distribution channels, such as ATMs and online services. In this context, our deputy André Bauler asked the Minister of the Economy about the future of the post office in Troisvierges.

« Je viens d’apprendre que le bureau de poste de Troisvierges risquerait d’être fermé dans un avenir proche. Or, il y a peu de temps, le bureau en question avait été réaménagé pour répondre au mieux aux besoins de la clientèle régionale. Il est donc surprenant qu’une telle décision puisse être prise quelques mois après.

Voilà pourquoi j’aimerais poser les questions suivantes à Monsieur le Ministre de l’Économie :

  • Monsieur le Ministre peut-il confirmer cette décision ?
  • Dans l’affirmative, quelles en seraient les raisons ? Endéans quels délais cette fermeture aurait-elle lieu? Combien de clients et d’employés seraient concernés directement par cette décision ?
  • Monsieur le Ministre n’est-il pas d’avis que de telles décisions ont un effet négatif sur la vie sociale et sur le futur économique de tout un village qui vit en partie du commerce local ? »

Introduction of skin cancer screening?

Since 2008, skin cancer screening has been available in Germany for all policyholders aged 35 and over. As a result, many cases of skin cancer are detected earlier.
DP MPs André Bauler and Gilles Baum wanted to know from the Minister for Health how skin cancer figures have developed here in the country since 2013, whether such screening would also be useful in Luxembourg and why only figures for melanoma (black skin cancer) are collected.
