For the NFP deputy for Seine-Saint-Denis “the best way to control” is “to understand why we have figures that vary to this extent in one year”.

LFI deputy Éric Coquerel, who intends to transform the finance committee he chairs into a committee of inquiry into budgetary slippage, said Sunday on 3 “hope” receive the support of the President of the Assembly, Yaël Braun-Pivet, essential to carry out this rare operation. “I hope”replied Éric Coquerel, when asked about possible future support. “I don’t see why she wouldn’t follow, because she also wants to ensure that the Assembly can play its role and in the role of the Assembly, particularly with regard to the budget, there is a role of control”he argued. “The best way to control is to understand why we have figures that vary to this extent in one year”he added. Finance commissioners will be invited to vote on Wednesday at 5 p.m., just before beginning examination of the 2025 draft budget.

Such a situation is rare, but not unprecedented. In 2018, the Law Commission, then chaired by Yaël Braun-Pivet, requested investigative powers (summons with obligation for the person to honor it, power of investigation, risk of prosecution in the event of false testimony.. .), to look into the Benalla affair. However, obtaining these powers is not automatic. The request is transmitted to the President of the National Assembly, then is posted and notified. But before the second following session, the government, a president of a political group or a president of a committee may oppose the request, according to the regulations of the National Assembly.

Understand how the slippage in the French public deficit could have been predicted by the former government at 5.1% when it should ultimately reach 6.1% of GDP this year, “it’s useful for the future, but it’s also useful for the credibility of the country”insisted Éric Coquerel. “I think that this question plays more than our deficits on possibly an increase in interest rates”he said. According to France 2internal notes from Bercy had alerted the former government to this slippage in public accounts from the fall of 2023. Questioned by the editorial staff, Bruno Le Maire responded in an enigmatic SMS: “The truth will emerge later.” The president of the Court of Auditors Pierre Moscovici also assured Friday that he wanted “let us know why and how this happened”.
