\nThe Chamber held the general discussion on the 2025 state budget bill 8444 and the 2024-2028 multiannual financial programming bill 8445.
\nGilles Roth, Ministre des Finances, reporting the revised central government deficit figure for 2025:
\n\n\nEch hat et am Oktober och scho gesot: am Joer 2025 net 3,1 Milliarden Defizit, wéi virausgesot, mee just nach 1,29 Milliarden Euro a vläicht esouguer manner, an dat trotz Steiererliichterungen, dat trotz engem héijen Invest an dat trotz héije Sozialausgaben.
\n
I already said it in October: in 2025 not a deficit of 3.1 billion, as forecast, but only 1.29 billion euros and perhaps even less, and that despite tax relief, despite high investment and despite high social spending.
\nSitting of 18 December 2024, Gilles Roth
\nMarc Spautz (CSV), criticising the government for carrying an administrative reform through the budget law:
\n\n\nEch fannen et net gutt, dass d’Integratioun vum Service national de la sécurité dans la fonction publique an d’Inspection du travail et des mines iwwert de Budget geschitt.
\n
I do not think it is good that the integration of the national security service of the civil service into the labour and mines inspectorate happens through the budget.
\nSitting of 18 December 2024, Marc Spautz, CSV
\nTaina Bofferding (LSAP), disputing the finance minister's claim that higher revenue comes from his own policy measures:
\n\n\nNee, den CSV-Fraktiounspresident huet scho selwer ugedeit, dass déi Recettë geklomm sinn aus dem einfache Grond, well e puer Entreprisen, déi wärend der Pandemie vill verdéngt hunn, elo d’Steieren aus deene Jore bezuelt hunn.
\n
No, the CSV group chairman himself has already hinted that the revenue rose for the simple reason that a few companies which earned a lot during the pandemic have now paid the taxes for those years.
