“The pension reform, adopted but not deliberate, is essential without being accepted by a large part of the company” | EUROtoday

Lhe pension reform imposed on compelled march by the federal government and, above all, the President of the Republic in 2023 brought about a triple fracture, whose scar won’t ever disappear. The fracture is first social, because of the energy, regardless of any negotiation with the social companions. The fracture can be democratic, because the residents appeared primarily and head -ons hostile to this reform which issues all of them (or nearly), the absence of session within the realization of the reform having not favored their membership. Finally, the fracture is institutional and parliamentary, the procedural path chosen and the authorized levers mobilized having made it doable to impose a reform towards the need of the parliamentary majority. We thus bear in mind the cumulation of the mechanisms of articles 47-1 (regulation of amending social safety financing, permitting procedural constraints), 44.3 (blocked voting) and 49.3 of the Constitution (absence of vote), to that are added the springs of assemblies.

So many components mobilized within the strictest respect for the Constitution, as confirmed by the Constitutional Council in its determination of April 14, 2023, however whose cumulation actually doesn’t mirror a want to permit an enlightened deliberative course of or that of resulting in a reform which is democratically debated. In specific, one of many central components of the reform, the authorized age postponed from 62 to 64 years, has by no means been the topic of a debate within the National Assembly, whereas it’s going to concern all these claiming to retire in France.

In view of the present composition of the National Assembly, the Prime Minister had made two commitments: on the one hand, convening a “conclave”, permitting a debate between the social companions on doable developments of this reform, “Without totem or taboo” According to her personal phrases, and, alternatively, submit the outcomes of this conclave to nationwide illustration, in order that it may well resolve. This was, clearly, a method permitting François Bayrou to make sure, besides majority help within the National Assembly, not less than an absence of censorship handed by an absolute majority.
