\nSittings: Sitting of 2 April 2025, Sitting of 2 April 2025
\nThe Chamber debated and voted the projet de loi 8422 approving amendments to the statutes of four multilateral development banks, including a rise in Luxembourg's subscribed capital in the European Investment Bank; the bill was adopted by 58 votes with 2 abstentions and the second constitutional vote was waived.
\nMaurice Bauer (CSV), arguing the bill matters more because the United States has wound up USAID:
\n\n\nWann ee bedenkt, dass Amerika seng Entwécklungshëllefsagence USAID elo rezent ofgeschaaft huet a sech domadder massiv aus der internationaler Entwécklungshëllef zeréckgezunn huet, ass dëse Projet de loi ëmsou méi wichteg.
\n
If you consider that America has recently abolished its development aid agency USAID and has thereby withdrawn massively from international development aid, this bill is all the more important.

\nAndré Bauler (DP), citing a figure on the rise in the financing needs of developing countries:
\n\n\nDo steet ze liesen, datt tëscht 2015 an 2022 de Finanzéierungsbedarf vun den Entwécklungslänner ëm 36 % geklomm ass.
\n
It says there that between 2015 and 2022 the financing need of developing countries rose by 36%.

\nFranz Fayot (LSAP), welcoming the higher lending capacity the change of statutes brings:
\n\n\nMir begréissen och de Fait, dass déi Capacitéit, Prêten ze ginn, och méi héich Prêten ze ginn, eropgesat ginn ass duerch déi Statuttenännerung.
\n
We also welcome the fact that the capacity to give loans, and to give higher loans, has been raised by this change of statutes.
