In the absence of indexation, “380,000 new households” could find themselves taxable next year, and “a little more than 17 million of them” would experience an increase in income tax, according to the minister of the resigning Budget Laurent Saint-Martin. But the situation could be corrected in the 2025 budget or in another bill at the start of next year, while the special bill, intended to guarantee the continuity of the State in the absence of a budget passed in 2024, is examined Monday by the Assembly.
But the amendments to the special bill tabled by numerous deputies to index the income tax scale to inflation were declared inadmissible this Monday by Yaël Braun-Pivet.
Author of one of the inadmissible amendments, the LFI president of the Finance Committee, Éric Coquerel, regretted that it was not “tested with the Constitutional Council” after the adoption of the law, arguing that it was not there was no precedent (in 1979, the government had to resort to a form of special law but without indexation measure).
