On Wednesday, November 27, the seven deputies and the seven senators of the joint committee reached an agreement on the social security financing bill for 2025. The text will, however, have to be adopted by the National Assembly and the Senate.
A compromise after long hours of discussions. “Deputies and senators reached an agreement on the Social Security financing bill for 2025”announced the National Assembly on the evening of Wednesday, November 27. The joint committee, which brings together seven deputies and seven senators, therefore found a compromise on a text which will then be submitted to the two chambers of Parliament, the Senate and the National Assembly, where the executive should probably resort to article 49.3 , thus endangering the Barnier government.
The text resulting from the joint committee notably provides for a measure to increase pensions in 2025 below inflation for more than half of retirees, which the RN firmly opposes. The text also contains a reduction in employer contribution reductions, to the tune of 1.6 billion euros. The increase in a tax on sugary drinks is also confirmed. A faster than expected increase in the price of a packet of cigarettes has been postponed.
Towards a 49.3 from Monday December 2
The Social Security financing bill for 2025 should therefore result on Monday, December 2 in a 49.3 from Michel Barnier, his government not having a majority in the National Assembly. This, while a threat of censorship weighs more and more on the current tenant of Matignon, despite his warnings against a risk of “fairly serious storm” in the event of the fall of his government.
