“We have never seen this”, criticizes the opposition: in response, MR and Engagés call to “give the government a quarter”

On the other hand, the two majority partners (MR and Les Engagés) declined the proposal. Arguing that “work is underway with the PO federations (organizing authorities, editor’s note) to, on the one hand, establish a register of existing alternatives and, on the other hand, find solutions for training which presents specificities “, the liberal deputy Nicolas Janssen clarified that the government action “is already starting to show its results” – referring to the solution identified by the responsible minister in the case of the 7P “watchmaking” provided at IATA, in Namur.

Strike

“Consultation, listening, exchange, these are among the markers of our movementfor his part insisted Loïc Jacob, for the group Les Engagés. It’s something we do every day, it’s part of our missions and our job. The government is committed, it is consulting, it has issued a meeting clause within 3 months. Let’s do things in order, let him work“.

“For the moment, the result of your work and your consultation is the notice of strike in teaching (for next January 27 and 28, Editor’s note)”, replied DéFI elected official Fabian Maingain. “It’s having alienated the POs, the directors, the students and the teachersadded Martin Casier. It’s a strike! We’ve never seen that. It’s everyone“.

The PS group leader therefore estimated that “coming to say that we must trust the work of the government, because it would have miraculously regained serenity during the Christmas period, is asking us to buy a cat in a bag“, reiterating the PS’s desire to have “a debate not parallel, but complementary to what the government is going to do“.

Democracy

“Parliament is not a chamber for ratifying the executive“, Bénédicte Linard was offended, for Écolo. before continuing: “Today, there is an entire sector that is mobilized. And so, I don’t understand why you refuse to allow the debates to take place in public, here in Parliament. It is democratic work which seems fundamental to me: from the moment when all the stakeholders in a subject feel that they are not being heard, it is logical that the debate can take place in the places that democracy provides for this. kind of discussion“.

Three months

It was finally through a vote that the decision was taken, the deputies representing the MR-Engaged majority rejecting, by 8 votes to 5, the PS proposal supported by the PTB, Écolo and DéFI. At least, for now…

“It is essential to give the government a quarter to carry out its land register and proposals“, underlined Nicolas Janssen. “If necessary, let’s come back with a discussion of the same nature after the meeting set by the government“, then suggested Loïc Jacob.
