Petitions to the Chamber of Deputies

OBJECT : The first stage of the 2026 Tour de Luxembourg arrived in Luxembourg City on 16 September at around 5:45 p.m., precisely at a time when many people were travelling home from work. The road closures and diversions put in place that day showed that an event of this scale needs to be better coordinated with everyday traffic. This petition therefore calls for the following measures for future editions of the Skoda Tour de Luxembourg and other major events: * finishes and major road closures should, as far as possible, be avoided during peak hours; * clear and simple diversion routes should be planned in advance; * the public should be informed sufficiently early and clearly about road closures and the routes that remain accessible; * road closures and diversions should be reported as quickly as possible to navigation apps and other traffic information services; * emergency services, home care services and other essential services must be able to circulate at all times; * major events should only be authorised where effective traffic management can be guaranteed; * organisers should, as far as possible, bear the additional costs directly caused by the event, in particular those relating to police presence, municipal officers, signage and traffic management.

OBJECT : Cette démarche ne vise pas à stigmatiser les personnes souffrant d'une addiction ni celles qui ont consommé des drogues dans le passé. L'objectif principal est de garantir la sécurité et le bien-être des enfants et des adolescents. Toute personne qui assume professionnellement une responsabilité à l'égard de mineurs occupe une fonction fondée sur la confiance et implique une responsabilité particulière. C'est pourquoi des règles claires et uniformes doivent s'appliquer à ces activités. Nous demandons donc aux autorités compétentes du Grand-Duché de Luxembourg de mettre en place un cadre légal pour des dépistages obligatoires de drogues et de garantir que les personnes dont la consommation de drogues a été établie ne puissent pas exercer une activité impliquant une responsabilité directe à l'égard d'enfants ou d'adolescents. La protection des enfants et des adolescents doit rester une priorité absolue.

OBJECT : Introduce legislation requiring employers in Luxembourg to provide specific, written and factual reasons for rejecting job applicants. The legislation should establish the following obligations: Specific feedback: Identify the professional skills, qualifications, experience or assessment results decisive in the rejection. Generic explanations must not be considered sufficient. Clear justification: Distinguish between candidates who fail to meet essential requirements and qualified candidates rejected in favour of another applicant, specifying the decisive selection criteria. Documented selection criteria: Establish selection criteria before evaluating candidates and document recruitment decisions. Record retention: Retain recruitment assessments and decisions for a legally defined period, in compliance with data protection legislation. Independent review: Allow candidates to request an independent examination where reasonable grounds exist to suspect discrimination, favouritism or other irregularities. Enforcement: Establish reasonable deadlines for providing feedback, effective oversight mechanisms and proportionate sanctions for non-compliance. The required level of detail should reflect the stage reached in the recruitment process.
