The deputy (Horizons) Jérémie Patrier-Leitus, rapporteur of the parliamentary mission on the causes and consequences of the decline in the birth rate, at the National Assembly, in Paris, June 30, 2025.

Faced with the dizziness of the drop in births, it’s a “family policy revolution” what is known as by the deputy (Horizons) of Calvados Jérémie Patrier-Leitus, rapporteur of a parliamentary mission on the causes and penalties of the drop within the delivery price launched in July 2025. This devoted member of former Prime Minister Edouard Philippe proposes, in his report offered on Wednesday February 11, “to refocus family policy on a single clear objective: to enable French people who wish it” and which might be prevented right this moment, primarily by materials obstacles, “to have children” – an argument put ahead specifically by the National Union of Family Associations.

For the MP, who says he’s satisfied, after a number of months of hearings and after journeys in France and overseas, that the French’s need to have kids is larger than the delivery figures, “reducing the delta between this desire and its realization is a great challenge”.

This entails a spread of measures referring to housing, parental go away, childcare, but in addition to reconciling household {and professional} life and monetary assist for households. On this final facet, Mr. Patrier-Leitus recommends making a single household cost of 250 euros per thirty days, granted “from the first child and without resource conditions”.
