\nSittings: Sitting of 16 January 2024
\nThe Chamber debated and adopted bill 8266, which rules what happens when two public holidays fall on the same day, after Ascension Day and Europe Day both fall on 9 May 2024; the bill was adopted unanimously with 59 votes and the second constitutional vote was waived.
\nMarc Spautz (CSV), reporting as rapporteur that the bill adds no new public holiday:
\n\n\nEch wëll och ënnersträichen, dass kee Feierdag bäikënnt.
\n
I also want to underline that no public holiday is being added.
\nSitting of 16 January 2024, Marc Spautz, CSV
\nAndré Bauler (DP), stating what the bill provides:
\n\n\nHaut leeë mer also fest, datt kee Feierdag verluer geet, mee datt deen zweete Feierdag mat engem zousätzleche Congésdag soll kompenséiert ginn.
\n
So today we lay down that no public holiday is lost, but that the second public holiday is to be compensated with an extra day of leave.
\nSitting of 16 January 2024, André Bauler, DP
\nClaude Haagen (LSAP), giving his group's agreement to the bill:
\n\n\nD’LSAP-Fraktioun gëtt den Accord zu dësem Projet de loi, dee vum fréieren Aarbechtsminister, dem Här Engel, deposéiert ginn ass an deen d’Problematik natierlech och léist mat deenen zwee Feierdeeg, wa se op een Dag falen.
\n
The LSAP group gives its agreement to this bill, which was tabled by the former labour minister Mr Engel and which of course solves the problem of the two public holidays when they fall on one day.
