It is a decision of the administrative court of Lyon which is not passed to the town hall of Tassin-la-Demi-Lune.
This Monday, the judges ruled in favor of a mother of students who had demanded the repeal of the town's school catering contract in order to “reintroduce” alternative menus in canteens.
The City of Tassin has six months to comply. But the councilor (Les Républicains) Pascal Charmot does not intend to stop there.
In a press release, he announced his intention to appeal. Because for him, the decision of the Lyon administrative court is based on a simple article from Le Progrès dating from 2016 and which would have misled the judges.
Indeed, the article may have led us to believe that before 2016, the date on which the Tassilunois municipal council voted on the school catering contract, substitute menus were offered to children. However, this has never been the case in Tassin.
“This judgment is obviously political and it is serious that it is”denounces Pascal Charmot.
“Case law, in the absence of law, specifies that these menus are not obligatory but must be maintained if they existed. However, these menus did not exist and no official document attests to this. (…) So how can I put back something that didn't exist unless the judge makes me a shopping list?concludes Pascal Charmot, who regrets that Licra has “pressed very curiously” the mother's appeal.
