rents</h2>\n<p>14 May 2024 — stating that the waiting lists for affordable rental homes have grown sharply</p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Tatsaach, Här President, ass och, dass d’Zuel vun de Leit op de Waardelëschte fir abordabel Mietwunnengen extreem geklommen ass.</p>\n</blockquote>\n<p><em>It is also a fact, Mr President, that the number of people on the waiting lists for affordable rental homes has risen extremely.</em></p>\n<p><a href=\"/lhoft?page=seances%2F2024-05-14-n025\" class=\"wikiLink\" data-target=\"seances/2024-05-14-n025\">Sitting of 14 May 2024</a></p>\n<p>11 December 2024 — regretting that the initiative did not come from the consumer protection minister</p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Ech bedaueren natierlech och, dass d’Initiativ net ausgaangen ass vun der Ministesch, déi de Konsumenteschutz an hirer Responsabilitéit huet.</p>\n</blockquote>\n<p><em>I also regret, of course, that the initiative did not come from the minister who has consumer protection in her remit.</em></p>\n<p><a href=\"/lhoft?page=seances%2F2024-12-11-n052\" class=\"wikiLink\" data-target=\"seances/2024-12-11-n052\">Sitting of 11 December 2024</a></p>\n<p>17 March 2026 — explaining what her motion on cooperative housing asks the government to do</p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Dat ass de But vun dëser Motioun: wéi gesot, eng Opfuerderung un d’Regierung, déi néideg Begleetstrukturen en place ze setzen, fir eis zu Lëtzebuerg eppes opzebauen, wou mer hannendru sinn.</p>\n</blockquote>\n<p><em>That is the purpose of this motion: a call on the government to put the necessary support structures in place, so that we build up in Luxembourg something we are behind on.</em></p>\n<p><a href=\"/lhoft?page=seances%2F2026-03-17-n132\" class=\"wikiLink\"

east during the election campaign</p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Nichtsdestotrotz erënnere mer eis, et ass net laang hier, dass an der Walcampagne grad vun de Regierungsparteie ganz grouss ugeféiert ginn ass, dass esou eng Maison médicale soll kommen am Oste, ganz kloer, an natierlech och am Norden, esou ass vun der Madamm Hansen ëmmer erëm taktéiert ginn.</p>\n</blockquote>\n<p><em>Nevertheless we remember, it is not long ago, that in the election campaign the governing parties in particular announced loudly that such a medical centre would come in the east, very clearly, and of course in the north too, as Mrs Hansen kept insisting.</em></p>\n<p><a href=\"/lhoft?page=seances%2F2024-01-16-n009\" class=\"wikiLink\" data-target=\"seances/2024-01-16-n009\">Sitting of 16 January

Sënn vun där Motioun, dass déi Fuerderung, déi dann déi viregt Regierung sech op de Fändel geschriwwen hat am Plan national santé, och schnell kann ëmgesat ginn.</p>\n</blockquote>\n<p><em>What we would wish today, and that is the sense of this motion, is that the demand which the previous government wrote on its flag in the national health plan can also be implemented quickly.</em></p>\n<p><a

law</p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Ech géif mer wënschen – et wäert Iech net wonneren –, dass mer zu deenen Éischte géife gehéieren.</p>\n</blockquote>\n<p><em>I would wish – and this will not surprise you – that we belong to the first ones.</em></p>\n<p><a href=\"/lhoft?page=seances%2F2026-04-30-n140\" class=\"wikiLink\" data-target=\"seances/2026-04-30-n140\">Sitting of 30 April 2026</a></p>\n<h2>Also
