If the creation of such a body is in demand from professionals, the strict conditions for receiving compensation may make them disappointed.
It is a request from Paris restaurants and hotels, considering themselves harmed by the traffic restrictions linked to the Paris Olympic Games 2024 heard by Prime Minister Gabriel Attal, who announced in June creation of a paid economic actors, many may eventually become discouraged. . Partly because the compensation will not be paid directly: requests can only be submitted from the beginning of 2025, with no opening date for the online platform announced yet.
And, above all, the secretary general of the Council, led by the honorable President of State Dominique Laurent, reminds them Figaro what “The alleged economic damage must be a direct result of the City’s police measure received and personally suffered by the petitioner’s expert”. For example, a ban or restriction on movement, movement, access to certain areas, or even temporary withdrawal of permission to move public property (flats, living spaces, etc.). “It will be professional to provide evidence by any means of a direct link with the damage suffered by your company”added from the same source.
It is this character “direct” of financial damage that not all professionals seem to have understood, the Pay Commission means. Because “Some questions are accepted” do not meet this situation. In general, even before opening the site on which professionals can submit their files, the Commission already has “get some 120 to 130 emails”he said. “Especially requests for information”which report is changed “without license”from restaurateurs, hoteliers and other traders based in the capital.

A possible “regenerative effect”
Such a situation should undoubtedly exclude a number of professionals from compensation. Because as the council explained, “More “situational” reasons will not be considered.” For example a “give up in search because some Parisians have left the city during the Olympics because of the worry that things would go wrong”a “Telephone general”we had “Consumer behavior of Olympic tourists sometimes differs from traditional tourists in July-August”list an example. The reasons given by many traders and retailers, even outside the areas of the Olympic sites, to justify their reduction in attendance.
To this writing “direct” of damage, other conditions are added to the hope of receiving compensation. It must spread out “shade”that has to be said to be significant in terms of changes, and “important”which means that it must not affect the whole activity in general but must have directly affected the professional at the beginning of the question. The last position, and not the least, must be financial damage “of course”.
If the concerns were very strong at the beginning of July when the traffic restrictions were at their height, especially before the opening ceremony, the movement in the tourist activity in August seems to reduce the fears of a “black summer.
Secretary General of the Pay Commission
In other words, it must not be adapted to “an expected opportunity that will not materialize” or from “The immediate damage is compensated, for example, in the coming weeks or months by the economic benefits of the Games and the normalization of the renewal of the Olympic sites”can be read on the website of the Ministry of Economy. This is why requests for compensation can be made from the beginning of 2025, on the basis of the entire accounting year 2024, “to take into account the possible return effect in performance at the end of the restricted period”mentions practical guidance for professionals.
Which can reduce the number of claims and further payments. The committee pointed out that the fact “If concerns are too strong at the beginning of July when the road restrictions are at their height, especially before the opening ceremony, the movement istourist activity in August seems to ease fears of a “black summer”adding that “What the messages received therefore show a reduction in this concern”. In the end, the number of professionals you ultimately pay may be much less.
