\nSittings: Sitting of 10 June 2025
\nthe debate and vote on Projet de loi 8481, which reforms Article 29bis of the communal planning law to raise the affordable-housing quotas in new PAP quartiers; the bill was adopted by 54 votes to 2 with 4 abstentions
\nStéphanie Weydert (CSV), stating the affordable-housing quotas that the bill sets:
\n\n\nDat heescht konkreet fir PAPe mat méi wéi zéng Wunnunitéiten, datt 15 % abordabele Wunnraum musse geschafe ginn a PAPen, déi aktuell schonn als Bauland klasséiert sinn; a 20 % bezuelbare Wunnraum musse geschafe ginn op Terrainen, déi nei als Bauland ëmklasséiert ginn.
\n
Concretely this means, for PAPs with more than ten housing units, that 15% affordable housing must be created in PAPs already classified as building land, and 20% affordable housing must be created on land newly reclassified as building land.
\nSitting of 10 June 2025, Stéphanie Weydert, CSV
\nLuc Emering (DP), welcoming the simplification of procedures brought by the reform:
\n\n\nDowéinst si mir frou, datt elo mat der Reform vum Artikel 29bis d’Prozedure fir eng Rëtsch Acteure vereinfacht ginn.
\n
That is why we are glad that, with the reform of Article 29bis, the procedures are now simplified for a whole range of actors.
\nSitting of 10 June 2025, Luc Emering, DP
\nTaina Bofferding (LSAP), arguing that the reform is only one tool and that more binding instruments are needed:
\n\n\nMee ech soe ganz bewosst: een Instrument! Am Logement brauch et nach ganz vill aner contraignant Instrumenter.
\n
But I say it quite deliberately: one instrument! In housing, many other binding instruments are still needed.
