What will the ministry’s announced taxi platform look like?

The mobility minister recently announced the creation of a platform similar to Uber's. DP MP Max Hahn asked what the platform should look like and when it should be operational.

„Den Här Minister huet viru kuerzem d’Schafe vun enger Plattform annoncéiert, déi änlech wéi Uber soll fonctionéieren.

An deem Kader wollt ech dem Här Minister fir Mobilitéit an ëffentlech Aarbechten folgend Froe stellen:

  • Kann den Här Minister weider Informatiounen zu dëser Plattform ginn? Wat sinn d’Conditioune fir sech als Chauffeur unzemellen? Wéi eng Zort Offer wäert ugebuede ginn (Ride-hailing, Reservéierung am Virfeld,…)?
  • Wäert dës Plattform bestoend Plattformen am Taxisecteur ersetzen? Ass geplangt, dës Plattform an d’Mobilitéits-App z’integréieren?
  • Wat sinn d’Grënn firwat de Staat esou eng Plattform entwéckelt, amplaz de Secteur selwer?
  • Wat ass de Käschtepunkt fir dës Plattform ze entwéckelen?
  • Wéini soll dës Plattform operationel sinn?“

Answer

D’Iddi vun enger Plattform, déi änlech wéi Uber oder aner vergläichbar Ubidder funktionéiere soll baséiert sech op engem aktuelle Manktem vun Transparenz bei der Offer an de Präisser wéi och d’Garantéiere vum Anhale vun den Aarbechtsgesetzgebung an de sozialen Standarden am Secteur. Ausserdem sollen déi zwee Type vun Servicer, d’Taxien an VLCen (voiture de location avec chauffeur) zu engem eenzegen Regime zesumme gefouert ginn. Dëst entsprécht och de Rekommandatioune déi déi Europäesch Kommissioun de 4. Februar 2022 iwwert de lokalen bezuelten Passagéiertransport eraus ginn huet, fir dës Servicer an Europa méi eenheetlech ze regelen a fir Abusen ze ënnerbannen.

Wéi genee esou eng Plattform lo kéint ausgesinn a wat déi genee Modalitéiten sinn, soll an deenen nächste Wochen an engem Aarbechtsgrupp zesumme mat den Acteuren aus dem Secteur ausgeschafft ginn. Am spéiden Hierscht misst da fest stoe wéi de Projet weidergeet.

Wëll villes vum Resultat vun dëse Gespréicher ofhänkt, ass et am Moment nach net méiglech fir op déi aner Froen ze äntwerten.

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.
