PARLIAMENTARY WORK
As spokesperson for agriculture and food safety, Jeff took the floor and spoke in debates such as those on healthy eating or obesity. He was rapporteur for several pieces of legislation:
The reform of the law on animal diseases helps with prevention, early detection and rapid response.
The ASTA is getting a new building and a new laboratory next to the agricultural school.
With 20 million euros, investments by agricultural businesses and larger greenhouses are being subsidised.
Drinking water supply was improved through the new SEBES law.
He was also spokesperson for important legislation in the field of energy and energy security:
With subsidies for photovoltaic installations, there is no longer any need to pre-finance anything and you now only pay your share of the investment.
This year the government is investing 150 million euros in grid costs; this lowers electricity prices for households, businesses and industry. The energy allowance was tripled for people with low income.
Jeff also spoke for the CSV on other legislation:
The Central Purchasing and Logistics Unit in the healthcare sector (CNAL) means greater efficiency, lower costs and a better stock of critical materials.
The reform of master craft training opens up new prospects for young people and for those who decide to go into a craft later in life.
His focus will be on expanding renewable energies and energy infrastructure.
