Petitions to the Chamber of Deputies

PURPOSE : The petition calls for English to be recognized as an officially accepted language for submitting public petitions to the Chamber of Deputies of Luxembourg, alongside French, German, and Luxembourgish. The aim is to make the petition process inclusive for the significant number of English-speaking residents, many of whom are long-term contributors to Luxembourg's society, economy, and civic life.

PURPOSE : This petition calls for the immediate abolition of au pair visa schemes in Luxembourg. The au pair programme is based on a fiction: the idea of a balanced cultural exchange between a "young foreign woman" and a "host family." In practice, it amounts to disguised employment. These young women - for they are almost exclusively women - work up to 30 hours per week, without a proper contract or access to the labour protections guaranteed by law. They perform tasks such as childcare, cleaning, and cooking - clearly qualifying as domestic labour - yet are paid a token "pocket money", often below EUR500 per month. This does not meet the standards of fair work, nor does it qualify as genuine cultural exchange. There is no moral, economic, or cultural justification for maintaining such an asymmetrical and potentially abusive system. If Luxembourg intends to uphold its commitments to social justice, labour rights, and protection against exploitation, this exception must be abolished.

PURPOSE : Ziel der Petition ist es die BNL 24/24hr 7Tage/Woche offen zu halten.
