And one. The National Assembly approved this Friday at noon the first article of the pension reform with 181 votes in favor and 163 against. MEPs must now continue to examine the text which still contains 19 articles.
This article puts an end to the special regimes of EDF, gaziers de France, RATP, notaries, Banque de France or even members of the Economic, Social and Environmental Council (Cese) after hours of debate in a very tense atmosphere.
“We understand that you don’t like railwaymen”
La Nupes, and particularly La France insoumise and the communists, snarled at the demise of these regimes, which they said compensated for the arduous nature of certain professions such as bus drivers, often forced to work staggered hours or on weekends. of week.
“We understood that you don’t like railway workers and that you despise gas electricians,” launched the communist Sébastien Jumel.
“We will vote against this article 1 and he will have to resign”, still judged the deputy LFI Clémence Guetté, for LFI.
“At a time when the RATP can no longer recruit”
Part of the National Association also fiercely opposed the suppression of these special regimes.
“At a time when the RATP can no longer hire, do you want to abolish your special pension regime?” questioned the RN Laurent Jacobelli, vilifying a measure “out of time” in an “unfair, useless, inhumane” reform.
Olivier Dussopt advocated for his part for “equity” between pension plans that “must respect social equity”.
Some special diets continue
According to figures from the Ministry of Labor, the average pension of retirees in the special regime is higher with 2,500 euros gross per month compared to 1,510 euros for all retirees.
In addition, “there are a series of regimes that we are not closing,” added the member of the Government, such as that of the fishermen, that of the Comédie Française or that of the dancers of the Paris Opera.
Insubordinate France has crossed swords particularly over the pension plan for senators, which is very advantageous. But only the Senate office can reform its own calculation method.
19 more articles to review
The deputies look from the afternoon of this Friday the senior index that intends to make public the employment rate of those over 50 years of age in each company.
It seems unlikely that parliamentarians will be able to scrutinize the entire bill, which contains a total of 20 articles. The government has chosen to activate article 47.1 of the Constitution, which allows setting a limited time for debate in the National Assembly.
Regardless of whether or not elected officials have considered full reform, the bill will be sent to the Senate next Friday night.
