The Greens (déi gréng) criticised the government's fiscal policy during the party's assessment of the parliamentary year.
The Greens argued that the CSV-DP coalition's fiscal policy was not sufficiently cautious over the medium term.
According to the party, the government is relying on short-term revenue from sources such as fuel and tobacco duties, as well as exceptional income from inheritance tax, while simultaneously cutting taxes.
The Greens warned that this would reduce the funding available for investment in public infrastructure and housing.
They are therefore calling for urgent measures to curb speculation in land and vacant homes, substantial state investment in housing construction, and tighter regulation of the rental market.
On climate policy, the party said municipalities needed to be rethought so that they could better adapt to a changing climate. However, climate protection and adaptation should not be treated as competing priorities.
The Greens are also calling for broader and faster financial support to help lower-income households switch to climate-friendly technologies.
