Between May 2024 and April 2026 the Chamber returned repeatedly to the public service and to the relation between citizens and the administration. The sittings covered the evaluation system and the salary accords with the CGFP, administrative simplification, the Ombudsman's annual reports, moral harassment in the civil service, the move of procedures online, and the pension and career rules for state employees. The quotes below are taken verbatim from the Compte rendu officiel of each sitting.
\nOn 2 May 2024, in the heure d'actualité on the evaluation system in the public service, Maurice Bauer stating his own party's position on the salary accord.
\n\n\nMee fir et direkt eemol ganz kloer ze soen: D’CSV steet onageschränkt zum Gehälteraccord vum 9. Dezember 2022 mat dem Ofschafe vum Bewäertungssystem an der Fonction publique, wéi en 2015 agefouert ginn ass!
\n
But to say it straight away very clearly: the CSV stands without reservation by the salary accord of 9 December 2022 and by abolishing the evaluation system in the public service as it was introduced in 2015!
\nSitting of 2 May 2024, Maurice Bauer, CSV
\nOn 4 December 2025, in the orientation debate on the Ombudsman's 2024 activity report, Nathalie Morgenthaler drawing the lesson from the number of complaints recorded in the report.
\n\n\nD’Léier aus den 1.455 Reklamatioune vum leschte Joer ass: Informatioun, Motivatioun vun Entscheedungen an termingerecht Reaktioune bleiwe weiderhi vital.
\n
The lesson from last year's 1,455 complaints is: information, reasoning of decisions and timely responses remain vital.
\nSitting of 4 December 2025, Nathalie Morgenthaler, CSV
\nOn 12 June 2024, in the debate on administrative simplification as the main axis of the government declaration, Gilles Baum stating that administrative simplification matters to everyone in the Chamber.
\n\n\nJo, d’Simplificatioun administrative ass eppes, vun deem ech mengen, dass et jiddwerengem heibanne wichteg ass.
\n
Yes, administrative simplification is something that I think is important to everyone in here.
\nSitting of 12 June 2024, Gilles Baum, DP
\nOn 14 October 2025, in the debate on bill 8301 on the digitalisation of recruitment in the civil service, Gusty Graas stating his group's view that the bill is important and modernises the State.
\n\n\nWéi gesot, ënnert dem Stréch si mir der Meenung, datt dat hei e Gesetz ass, wat wichteg ass, wat de Staat zousätzlech moderniséiert.
\n
As said, on balance we take the view that this is an important law which modernises the State further.
\nSitting of 14 October 2025, Gusty Graas, DP
\nOn 3 December 2024, in the orientation debate on the Ombudsman's activity reports for 2022 and 2023, Claire Delcourt stating her party's position on how administrations should be organised.
\n\n\nMir sinn awer och der Meenung, dass eis Verwaltungen esou opgestallt musse sinn, dass d’Leit direkt bei deenen zoustännege Servicer déi Erklärunge kréien, déi si brauchen.
\n
But we are also of the opinion that our administrations must be set up so that people get the explanations they need directly from the responsible services.
\nSitting of 3 December 2024, Claire Delcourt, LSAP
\nOn 29 April 2026, in the debate on the two bills implementing the salary agreement of 29 January 2025, Ben Polidori criticising the absence of a transitional solution for staff already in the procedure.
\n\n\nAn op där anerer Säit fannen ech awer schued, dass mer net probéiert hunn, zesummen do awer eng Léisung ze fannen, fir dass och déi Leit, déi haut an deem Fall sinn, awer net mussen do nach weider waarden, well alleguerten déi aner jo automatesch elo an dee Benefiss géife kommen.
\n
On the other hand I find it a pity that we did not try to find a solution together so that the people who are in that situation today do not have to keep waiting, because all the others will now automatically get the benefit.
\nSitting of 29 April 2026, Ben Polidori, LSAP
\nOn 4 December 2025, in the orientation debate on the Ombudsman's 2024 activity report, Dan Hardy restating his party's demand for simpler administrative procedures.
\n\n\nDofir wëll ech dorunner erënneren, datt d’ADR nach ëmmer eng Vereinfachung vun den administrative Prozedure gefuerdert huet.
\n
That is why I want to recall that the ADR has always demanded a simplification of administrative procedures.
\nSitting of 4 December 2025, Dan Hardy, ADR
\nOn 13 February 2025, in the heure d'actualité on moral harassment in the civil service and the communes, Djuna Bernard calling for an independent body for state and communal staff.
\n\n\nMir sinn der Meenung, dass et grad no de rezenten devoiléierte Virwërf misst eng Prioritéit sinn, eng onofhängeg Instanz ze schafen, déi souwuel fir de Staat wéi fir d’Gemengen an hir Mataarbechterinnen a Mataarbechter do ass.
\n
We believe that, especially after the recent revealed accusations, creating an independent body for the state as well as for the communes and their staff should be a priority.
\nSitting of 13 February 2025, Djuna Bernard, déi gréng
\nOn 18 December 2025, in the debate on bill 8479 on the online application for unemployment benefit at the ADEM, Djuna Bernard stating that the online application needs a LuxTrust certificate.
\n\n\nEt brauch een nämlech, fir seng Demande op MyGuichet respektiv MyADEM ze maachen, de LuxTrust-Certificat.
\n
To make your application on MyGuichet or MyADEM you need the LuxTrust certificate.
\nSitting of 18 December 2025, Djuna Bernard, déi gréng
\nOn 2 May 2024, in the heure d'actualité on the evaluation system in the public service, Marc Goergen stating what the 2022 salary accord committed the government to.
\n\n\nEt geet haut dorëms, dass am Accord salarial vun 2022 d’Regierung en Engagement hat, fir kee Bewäertungssystem méi am ganzen ëffentlechen Déngscht ze applizéieren.
\n
Today the point is that in the 2022 salary accord the government made a commitment to apply no evaluation system any more in the whole public service.
\nSitting of 2 May 2024, Marc Goergen, Piraten
\nOn 26 June 2025, in the question élargie on trade union freedom in the public service, Sven Clement criticising the government's reading of union rights as a reversal of established practice.
\n\n\nHär President, dës Interpretatioun representéiert eng 180-Grad-Kéier zu der etabléierter Praxis a weist, wéi d’Regierung scheinbar zu engem effikasse Sozialdialog steet.
\n
Mr President, this interpretation represents a 180-degree turn from established practice and shows how the government apparently stands on an effective social dialogue.
\nSitting of 26 June 2025, Sven Clement, Piraten
\nOn 13 February 2025, in the heure d'actualité on moral harassment in the civil service and the communes, David Wagner stating that no competent body has existed for ten years.
\n\n\nLeider ass et säit gutt zéng Joer awer esou, dass et am ëffentlechen Déngscht guer keen Organ mat den néidege Pouvoiren a Mëttele gëtt, dat an esou Fäll vu presuméiertem Mobbing de Virfäll kéint op de Grond goen, fir Léisungen ze fannen a gegeebenefalls och ze sanktionéieren.
\n
Unfortunately, for a good ten years there has been no body at all in the public service with the necessary powers and means to get to the bottom of such cases of presumed bullying, to find solutions and, where appropriate, to impose sanctions.
\nSitting of 13 February 2025, David Wagner, déi Lénk
\nOn 29 April 2026, in the debate on the two bills implementing the salary agreement of 29 January 2025, David Wagner stating support for the bill as a strengthening of the public service.
\n\n\nJo, mir ginn och eis Zoustëmmung zu dësem Projet de loi, well mer et och esou gesinn, datt et awer zu enger Stäerkung vun der Fonction publique an deementspriechend och vum Service public féiere kann, datt et och méi séier ka goen, fir an d’Fonctionnaireskarriär ze kommen.
\n
Yes, we also give our approval to this bill, because we see it the same way, that it can lead to a strengthening of the fonction publique and accordingly of the public service, and that access to the civil-servant career can go faster.
\nSitting of 29 April 2026, David Wagner, déi Lénk
\nOn 2 May 2024, in the heure d'actualité on the evaluation system in the public service, the Minister for the Civil Service explaining why the government refused the CGFP's proposal to avoid the term evaluation.
\n\n\nWell et muss een awer och kënnen éierlech sinn an d’Kand beim Numm nennen. Et ass e Bewäertungssystem, deen et bei der Arméi gëtt, an da soll een et och esou nennen!
\n
Because you must also be able to be honest and call the child by its name. It is an evaluation system that exists in the army, and so it should also be called that!
\nSitting of 2 May 2024, Serge Wilmes, Ministre de la Fonction publique
\nOn 18 December 2025, in the debate on bill 8479 on the online application for unemployment benefit at the ADEM, the Minister of the Economy calling the LuxTrust outage unacceptable in answer to the questions on it.
\n\n\nAn et ass inakzeptabel, dass LuxTrust bal 24 Stonnen offline ass.
\n
And it is unacceptable that LuxTrust is offline for almost 24 hours.
\nSitting of 18 December 2025, Lex Delles, Ministre de l’Économie, des PME, de l’Énergie et du Tourisme
