Question 18840 — businesses

Summary

Ms. Cécile Untermaier draws the attention of the Minister of the Economy and Finance to the difficulties encountered by economic actors in obtaining payment of their invoices from certain local authorities or public establishments, within the legal deadlines set by law. Failure to meet these payment deadlines can have dramatic consequences for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the latter thus ensuring the “banker” role of the project management, while their cash flow is very fragile. This situation is all the more worrying as local authorities and public establishments are now able to receive electronic invoices from some of their suppliers, which would make the payment process smoother. Also, she would like to know the measures what would the Government consider taking to ensure that communities and public administrations honor their invoices within the legal deadlines, avoiding that it falls to the company to put itself directly in a conflict situation with the said principals.
