\nSittings: Sitting of 14 December 2023
\nThe Chamber debated and then adopted bill 8257 approving Luxembourg's 61.21 million euro contribution to the twentieth replenishment of the International Development Association, with a dispensation from the second constitutional vote.
\nMaurice Bauer (CSV), presenting the content of the bill as rapporteur:
\n\n\nEt geet dobäi ëm de Projet de loi 8257, wou et drëms geet, fir Lëtzebuerg bei der 20. Reconstitutioun vun de Ressourcë vun der Association internationale de développement, kuerz AID, matzemaachen duerch eng Contributioun vun 61,21 Milliounen Euro via d’Emissioun vun engem sougenanntene „billet à ordre“ oder „promissory note“.
\n
This concerns bill 8257, under which Luxembourg takes part in the 20th replenishment of the resources of the International Development Association, IDA for short, through a contribution of 61.21 million euros by issuing a promissory note.
\nSitting of 14 December 2023, Maurice Bauer, CSV
\nAndré Bauler (DP), welcoming the multi-year commitment and stating its amount:
\n\n\nSchlussendlech begréisse mer, datt Lëtzebuerg sech hei erëm op e puer Joer engagéiert, bis d’Joer 2031, an dat mat eebe ronn 61 Milliounen Euro.
\n
Finally, we welcome that Luxembourg commits itself here again for several years, up to 2031, and that with around 61 million euros.
\nSitting of 14 December 2023, André Bauler, DP
\nFred Keup (ADR), arguing that the contribution should be counted within development aid and warning about the budget:
\n\n\nAllerdéngs si mir jo och der Meenung, dass dat soll ugerechent gi bei eiser Entwécklungshëllef, d’Kooperatiounshëllef, an dass mer dann do awer trotzdeem och mussen oppassen, dass eise Budget dat ka stemmen.
\n
However, we are also of the opinion that this should be counted towards our development aid, the cooperation aid, and that we must still take care that our budget can carry it.
