D'Chamber

The Chamber is elected by the people. The most important tasks of the Chamber are to make laws and to control the government. The 60 deputies also decide on the budget and what laws should look like. Additionally, the Chamber must authorize military deployments abroad. You can find more information about the work of the Chamber on chd.lu, including my deputy profile.

An important condition for democracy is not only that people can elect whom they want, but also that the elected representatives can form their opinions independently. Unfortunately, our Chamber is still somewhat behind when it comes to transparency, but that's why I inform about my contacts with lobbyists and publish the relevant part of my finances.

My Roles & Responsibilities

Deputies in the Chamber belong to parliamentary groups (Parliamentary Group (from 5 members) or Political Sensibility (up to 5 members)). These usually correspond to the parties that ran in the election. Together with Marc Goergen, I am one of two Deputies of the Political Sensibility PIRATES. You can find the composition of the Chamber on the chd.lu website.

I am currently the President of our parliamentary group, which means that in addition to political work, I also take on administrative tasks, such as managing staff and preparing meetings in the Conference of Presidents.

I am also a permanent substitute member of the Bureau and an observer at the Conference of Presidents.
