The conference of presidents of the Senate registered this Wednesday the creation of an investigation commission on the shortage of medicines, at the request of the CRCE group with a communist majority. Each political group has the right to establish one commission of inquiry or one fact-finding mission per parliamentary year.
The CRCE group uses its “drawing rights” to create a commission of inquiry into “the shortage of medicines and the options of the French pharmaceutical industry”.
It will have to “identify responsibilities in the face of drug shortages,” which have “multiplied by thirty in ten years in pharmacies,” according to the text by CRCE Senator Laurence Cohen.
The commission of inquiry will have to question, in particular, the question of the relocation of production plants in France.
“Payment delays and errors”
The Conference of Presidents also took part in three informative missions: on the future of the municipality and the mayor (drawing rights of the Les Républicains group), on “sustainable water management” (PS) and on “the school building made available to test Ecological Transition” (RDPI, mainly Renaissance). For this session, a commission of investigation has already been created on “the effectiveness of public policies in terms of energy renewal”, at the request of the environmental group.
She will be particularly interested in the “Ma Prime Renov” device which “does not seem to be operational at all”, according to the text by Guillaume Gontard. The president of the environmental group points to “delays in payments, bugs of all kinds, premiums lower than the budget made before the work.”
At the request of the centrist group, an information mission on “the development of a biofuel sector, sustainable synthetic fuels and green hydrogen” has also been launched. The members of this commission of inquiry and of this fact-finding mission were appointed on Tuesday.
