The political battle currently going on in the National Assembly is hard to follow. The debate and maneuvering around the Lyot group’s bill to abolish the postponement of the statutory retirement age to 64, which will be discussed on June 8 in a semi-cycle, is endless. In the coming days, they should experience new twists and turns. Here is an article to read in order to assess the current situation and understand what to do next.
It all started a few weeks ago with the submission of a text by the Lyot group aimed at repealing the main measure of the state pension reform, namely retirement at 64 years. After the adoption of Bill 49.3 and the conclusion of the Constitutional Council declaring the methods of examination of the text constitutional, this bill is the opposition’s last chance to win the majority.
If at first the latter was rather calm about the results of the vote, then in recent weeks this is no longer the case. She also fought to try to have the bill declared inadmissible on the basis of Article 40 of the Constitution, which prohibits parliamentarians from creating public office or restricting their powers. The President of the National Assembly, Yael Braun-Pivé, herself was not in favor of this – the Bureau she heads, moreover, declared the text acceptable – but eventually changed her mind under pressure from the government. The only parliamentarian who has been able to annul the position, finance committee chairman Eric Cockerell (LFI), also explained on Tuesday why he thinks the bill is constitutional and acceptable.
Electrical Committee for Social Affairs
Faced with this setback, the majority decided to continue the fight in the Social Affairs Committee, which began its consideration of the text on Wednesday. She filed and passed an amendment to remove section 1 of the bill relating to 64 years of age. In response, the Nupes MPs moved thousands of amendments and sub-amendments to prolong the debate, knowing that if they did not end in committee, the text presented in the meeting would be submitted to the committee before consideration. “If we do not have time to discuss the entire text, it will return to its original state during the session (June 8, approx. ed.), may be interested in this”explained LFI Deputy Alexis Corbière.
But the chairman of the commission, Fadila Khattabi (Renaissance), refused to consider these amendments. “In view of this egregious obstacle, we will proceed without verification” the amendments and sub-amendments made by Nupes, she announced, having received the approval of her decision by the Bureau of instance. A decision that angered left-wing deputies who protested as they left the debate room. They continued without them and the bill passed without Article 1.
- Pension reform: all about the Liot group
Another vote of no confidence?
What will happen next week? At the session, Lyot deputies and their Nupé partners will once again introduce an amendment to reinstate article 1 and abolish 64 years. It is at this moment that the majority vote of Yael Braun-Pivé should declare him unacceptable in the name of Article 40 of the Constitution. “I’ll take my responsibilities”she assured on Tuesday after she was criticized in her own camp for not blocking the text earlier.
For their part, the elected Nupes are considering filing a new vote of no confidence in the government. “The issue of distrust will pass with time, and perhaps in a not so distant time”warned the speaker of the bill, Charles de Courson (Liot).
