The new general budget reporter, centrist Charles de Courson (Marne), referred to the question of the acceptance of the “rebellious” document on the submission of the pension reform to the office of the National Assembly. Not because they no longer sit, as summer approaches the Hemicycle, MPS has nothing to do with politics. A week after having, by surprise, lost the strategic position of the general budget reporter to the deputy of the independent party, Independents, Overseas and regions, the Macronists put pressure on him.
In a letter written on July 25, MP Mathieu Lefèvre (Renaissance, Val-de-Marne) and his colleagues from the Ensemble pour la République of the finance committee asked Charles de Courson for his position on this money. At stake is a question of status, not political but constitutional. « Proposals and reforms proposed by members of parliament are not acceptable when their adoption will result in either a reduction in public resources or the creation or enhancement of public costs.provide article 40 of the constitution.
However, in their letter, the representatives of the Ensemble pour la République said that “The impact of this amendment [des retraites] on the balance of our public finances is important, of the order of 14 billion euros per year according to the study of the impact of the money. ». « Given its influence, we believe it is more connected than ever to this balance »Mathieu Lefèvre and his colleagues continue.
Process response
In his reply dated Friday July 26, that Chance was able to consult, Charles de Courson returned his opposition to the increase in the retirement age up to 64 years. And he gave a formal answer to the constitutional question that was asked of him. « Article 89 of the regulations of the National Assembly provides that it is available to the office of the Assembly or some of its members posted for this purpose to examine the receipt of money of legislative proposals before their deposit. » An important thing, at a time when the New Popular Front was in abundance in the important structure of the Palais-Bourbon. It is for this reason that La France insoumise (LFI) quickly presented a new proposal for repealing a law.
This does not completely resolve the matter: the interpretations of article 40 are very complex. Lilo said its application is less strict for legislative proposals than for amendments, so as not to limit the legislative initiative too much. And above all, in many cases, the representatives protect their proposals, so as not to fall easily under the influence of article 40. In this case, the LFI money is promised on the nature of the tax on the tax ” green”.
