A minister never acts alone, but only in accordance with the government, says Dan Kersch Author: Tim Morizet (Radio) adapted for RTL Today|Update: 17.02.2021 11:47 Minister of Labour Dan Kersch reacted to statements made by the president of the Union of Luxembourg Enterprises (UEL), who speculated that Lex Delles had provided aid that Kersch did not want to provide himself.
Kersch welcomes the fact that the UEL accepts the raise of the aid for uncovered costs as the de facto introduction of a substitute salary for self-employed workers.
The idea of a substitute salary had been suggested by Kersch himself on 11 February. After discussions with Minister for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises Lex Delles however, the idea was dropped.
