Ct is an exercise in style as much as a balancing act that Guillaume Kasbarian, Minister of the Civil Service for the simplification and transformation of public action, performed this Monday, November 25 in Gironde. Member of a government on borrowed time, to the point that he doesn't know if he will spend the holidays with his wallet. While in Matignon, Michel Barnier agreed on their disagreements with Marine Le Pen on the finance bill, the young minister met the staff at the Xavier-Arnozan University Hospital Center in Pessac.
Guillaume Kasbarian does not lack style. He sports the V's most recognizable handlebar mustache.e Republic. In addition to freedom of tone. Who had the gift of making his own friends retch. With the expression of great enthusiasm at the appointment of Elon Musk by Donald Trump, saying he was in a hurry to share with him “the best practices to fight against excess bureaucracy”.
Simplification
The theme of simplification was precisely one of the key points of the visit. An appointment was made at Olikrom in Pessac. The company manufactures luminescent paints. “A device that captures light during the day to illuminate the night. It does not consume any energy. We have found a way to develop technology that lights up for ten hours at night. It’s a plus in terms of security for cities that cut off lighting at night or in rural areas,” defends Jean-François Létard, the founder.
Communities are suspicious of this revolutionary process. “It is authorized on sidewalks or cycle paths, but not on the roadway. We obtained recognition of conformity, but we have not received the right to use this product, it’s been two years,” he laments. The fault lies in the scrupulous interpretation by the administration of the Vienna Convention dating from 1961. This stipulates that paints on the road must be invisible in the dark and white in the headlights of a car…
“Theodule Committee”
“We need to act to limit the administrative time of our companies and avoid having too heavy a straitjacket to face international competition,” warns Guillaume Kasbarian. We must trust businesses, the French. Overadministration is the mark of a lack of trust. I am ready to go as far as possible to debureaucratize the country. » The minister also mentions a simplification bill “which will make it possible to eliminate Théodule committees, to eliminate a certain number of complexities”.
Not sure if it goes beyond the project stage. Guillaume Kasbarian agrees: “I do my best to be useful, to shake the coconut tree, without asking myself the question of how long it will last. I activate as many subjects as possible as long as I am in office. » And adds: “The parliamentarians will decide responsibly what they want to do. It's all about responsibility… It's up to them to tell us what they want to do if they no longer want this government. »
