The profession of "Journalist" is legally protected in Luxembourg. Responsibility for the recognition of full-time and part-time journalists lies with the Press Council (Conseil de Presse). Journalists are represented by the professional associations Association Luxembourgeoise des Journalistes (ALJ) and the Union des Journalistes Luxembourg (ULJ). The journalists’ union IPI (Interregionale Presse - Presse Interrégionale) issues an interregional press pass. Following decision 13 in the district of Saar-Lor-Lux, this press pass must be recognised by all regions and treated like each of the national press passes. Cost: 30 Euro per year. |
