Bill 8343 (\"Barème d'imposition\"). The Chamber debated and voted it on 20 December 2023.
\nSittings: Sitting of 20 December 2023
\nThe Chamber debated and voted bill 8343 adapting the personal income tax barème by four index tranches from 1 January 2024; the LSAP tabled amendments 1 and 2, déi gréng tabled motion 1 and the Piraten motion 2, all four were rejected, and the bill was adopted.
\nDiane Adehm (CSV), stating the total tax relief the bill gives:
\n\n\nMat deem Gesetzesprojet, dee mir haut stëmmen, ginn d’Steierzueler also ëm 480 Milliounen Euro entlaascht.
\n
With this bill that we vote today, taxpayers are relieved by 480 million euros.
\nSitting of 20 December 2023, Diane Adehm, CSV
\nFranz Fayot (LSAP), criticising the distribution of the relief and stating the LSAP position on tax fairness:
\n\n\nAlso deen, dee ronn véiermol sou vill huet, kritt nach eng Kéier dräi an en halleft Mol sou vill Steiererliichterungen derbäi. Dat ass net eis Iddi vu Steiergerechtegkeet.
\n
So the person who has about four times as much gets three and a half times as much tax relief on top. That is not our idea of tax fairness.
\nSitting of 20 December 2023, Franz Fayot, LSAP
\nSam Tanson (déi gréng), contrasting the monthly gain for two income levels and judging the measure socially unfair:
\n\n\nEng Persoun, déi 3.000 Euro de Mount verdéngt, wäert duerch dës zousätzlech Mesür 14 Euro de Mount méi hunn. Eng Persoun, déi 12.000 Euro de Mount verdéngt, kritt schonn 41 Euro de Mount bäi. Sozial gerecht ass anescht!
\n
A person who earns 3,000 euros a month will have 14 euros more a month from this extra measure. A person who earns 12,000 euros a month already gets 41 euros a month more. Socially fair is something else!
