About this statute

This preamble says the ministers are acting to compensate damage caused by extraordinary floods of the Moselle in December 1947 and January 1948. The State must pay 3/4 of the compensation, and the remaining 1/4 is borne by the communal administrations of the place where the disaster occurred. Compensation is allowed for flood damage to movable and immovable property in Luxembourg caused by the exceptional Moselle and Sûre floods of December 1947 and January 1948, for Luxembourgers who have not been convicted for offences against the external security of the State. Certain damages are not compensable, and false declarations can trigger repayment of advances. L’indemnité dépend du degré de nécessité du sinistré and may be refused if the damage is insignificant compared with the person’s means.
