The National Assembly approved this Tuesday in first reading the bill dedicated to renewable energies, with the support of the socialist deputies, after a technical failure in the electronic voting system that delayed the vote.
Equipped with paper ballots, the deputies supported the text by 286 votes to 238, after a broad green light from the Senate in early November. Deputies and senators will try to agree on a compromise text on January 24, with a view to its final adoption.
After a moment of confusion and a series of attempts at electronic voting with the usual buttons on the tables, the president Yaël Braun-Pivet suspended the session in order to organize a ballot vote.
This began at 7:30 p.m. in the rooms next to the chamber and the result was given around 9:30 p.m.
