Sébastien Lecornu desires to cancel credit of 4.2 billion euros to carry the 2025 deficit | EUROtoday

A last flip of the screw, to satisfy the 2025 price range deficit goal. This is the center of the end-of-management invoice examined Monday, November 10 by the Council of Ministers, and instantly transmitted to the National Assembly, which can study it in committee from Wednesday. The authorities hopes for the fast adoption of this invoice, regardless of the absence of a majority within the Assembly and the bitter battles over the opposite budgetary texts beneath dialogue, the State price range and that of Social Security for 2026.

“Some may use this bill politically, to fire a warning shot, speculates Philippe Juvin, deputy (Les Républicains) for Hauts-de-Seine and general budget rapporteur. But on a strict budgetary level, it is a text which adapts the budget minimally, and does not open up any subject of controversy. Logic would dictate that it be adopted without difficulty. » At the end of 2024, the similar project was rejected by the Assembly at first reading.

The execution of the 2025 budget taking place without drama, the government of Sébastien Lecornu did not consider it necessary to submit to Parliament a real amending finance law, which would have made it possible to take urgent tax measures. Less spectacularly, the end of management law, a new type of law created in 2021, makes it possible to make some late adjustments. As the explanatory memorandum indicates, this involves both canceling certain appropriations, so as to maintain the targeted balance, while ensuring “financing unavoidable expenses” which weren’t scheduled.
