Neither repeal, nor freeze, nor suspension: François Bayrou chose the “restart with the social partners, without totem or taboo” of the pension reform, which had been voted in 2023, setting the starting age at 64 years . The Prime Minister, who delivered his general policy speech to the National Assembly on Tuesday, calmed (a little) the less extreme left and reassured the right.
The social partners will therefore have three months, from the submission of an inventory requested from the Court of Auditors, to find “an agreement of better balance and justice” within a “permanent delegation” almost confined as for a “conclave”. In short: if they find a better way to reform a largely deficit system, including by revisiting the age measurement, why not… provided that financing remains assured. It will be, says François Bayrou, a “new and somewhat radical method”.
