A fire has disrupted a parliamentary session in Luxembourg City at around 6pm. People in the building, including MPs, were evacuated. Firefighters arrived shortly later.
An RTL journalist who was present explained that there had first been a power outage. 10 minutes later, people inside the building were told that there was a fire. The fire reportedly broke out in the administrative part of Parliament (Maison Printz&Richard), not inside the plenary hall itself.
The orientation debate about organic agriculture was interrupted and will not be continued tonight. The power outage reportedly affected the entire neighbourhood in Luxembourg City.
Around 7pm, firefighters reported that there was no danger. MPs will be able to resume their duties on Wednesday.
