Processing fee: Establishment of a principle of contractual reciprocity and a right to statutory compensation for consumers facing service provider failures

Public petition

4238

Submission date 25/08/2026

OBJECT : The purpose of this petition is to strengthen consumer rights in Luxembourg by introducing into the Consumer Code a strict principle of contractual and financial reciprocity vis-à-vis businesses and professionals (specifically across the banking, insurance, telecommunications, energy, and e-commerce sectors). The objective is to grant users and consumers the legal authority to charge standard administrative/handling fees or obtain automatic, regulated compensation when a persistent technical malfunction, digital interface outage, or processing failure attributable to the service provider forces the user to perform time-consuming manual procedures to fulfill contractual obligations or assert their rights. The petition also calls for the mandatory, automatic waiver of all ancillary fees, reminder costs, or penalties claimed by a provider whenever a delay or complication stems from an outage or bug in its own digital systems.

Begrenzung des politischen Aktivitäten von Abgeordneten/Bürgermeister.

Public petition

4234

Submission date 19/08/2026

OBJECT : Zurzeit nimmt das Abgeordnetenmandat 20 Wochenstunden politischen Urlaub in Anspruch. So mancher Bürgermeister/in hat bereits 40 Wochenstunden politischen Urlaub in seiner Gemeinde. Dies ergibt dann 60 Wochenstunden. In Luxemburg liegt die Wochenarbeitszeit auf 40 Stunden. Ziel der Petition ist es die politische Arbeit auf 40 Wochenstunden zu begrenzen. So darf ein Bürgermeister/in, welche/r bereits in seiner Gemeinde laut Gesetz 40. Wochenstunden politischen Urlaub von gesetzeswegen zusteht, keine weiteren Aktivitäten annehmen. Dies ermöglicht dann auch politische Arbeit auf mehr Menschen zu verteilen.
