“clear information”

The «montant net social» is part of the project of «solidarity at the source», by which the government hopes to fight against the non-use of social benefits. Next step, by 2024, the funds will send, on the basis of this net social amount, a pre-filled form to potential recipients of social assistance.
As part of the same project, the government will launch a call for projects by March for the experimentation of “zero non-recourse territories»: local projects already engaged in the fight against non-use may be selected and tested on a larger scale, for three years, before a possible generalization. According to a report published in June 2021 by Secours Catholique, around a third of people eligible for the RSA do not receive it, and a quarter of those eligible for family allowances.
