Petitions to the Chamber of Deputies

OBJECT : « Plus de 200 000 travailleurs frontaliers traversent chaque jour notre pays ! De même, des centaines de milliers de personnes viennent quotidiennement pour faire le plein et acheter des cigarettes ! Sans oublier plus d'un million de touristes, chaque année! Avec, par exemple, une vignette nationale de 50 EUR par an, cela représenterait une source de revenus significative pour le Luxembourg ! Cela permettrait de compenser une petite partie du transport public gratuit, qui est également principalement. utilisé par des non-Luxembourgeois. » Où disons des non-résidents ! Est-ce que cela ne vaudrait pas la peine, pour créer des recettes supplémentaires ?

OBJECT : In the current context of geopolitical instability and energy shocks-particularly linked to the war in Iran and disruptions in energy markets-Luxembourg must strengthen its energy resilience by accelerating the uptake of efficient, low-carbon heating solutions such as heat pumps. We request that, solely for access to subsidies/financial support (Klimabonus) related to heat pumps, the current acoustic control method be adapted: the 40 dB(A) threshold would be maintained, but the assessment would be carried out at the relevant immission point (at the window closest to a noise-sensitive room at the neighbour's dwelling) rather than at the property boundary.

OBJECT : It is 2026, and we continue to see cigarette ends and other litter on the ground every day. Despite the 2012 law, which was tightened in 2022, some people continue to throw their cigarette ends on the ground without facing any consequences. This pollution, which is entirely preventable, should no longer be happening in 2026. (It is hard to understand how some people can still do this in full knowledge of the law...) Solutions must be found urgently to enforce the law. Without fines, attitudes will not change, despite the various awareness campaigns. Proof in action: Speed cameras help to reduce speeding. Breathalyser checks help to reduce alcohol abuse. Etc. We must therefore introduce police checks and issue fines to those who continue to throw away their cigarette ends or other litter. As a reminder, Singapore sets an example for us all. Throwing away a cigarette end is punishable by a fine of EUR12,400 and several hours of community service. Conclusion: no cigarette ends or chewing gum on the ground.
