If the surprise is size, it is likely that it does not last in time. MPs have momentarily lightened, on Friday, October 15, the conditions for the implementation of the sanitary pass, thus taking the government in rebousse-haired, before the passage of the bill on health vigilance in the hemicycle, Tuesday, October 19, aimed at to extend the possibility of resorting to the sanitary pass until July 31, 2022.
against all odds, the members, who examined this new text on the state of health in the laws Committee, adopted an amendment by the member Pacôme Ripin (the Republic on the Marche), opposing a longtime to this tool. he judges “dangerous” for public freedoms. This amendment must be “reviewed” when reviewing the text in session, predicted a parliamentary source of LRM. Understanding: Members will completely come back on it.
The amendment of Mr. Ripin, accurately adopted by eight votes to seven, plans to circumscribe the use of the geographically sanitary pass and according to the evolution of the CVIV-19 epidemic. It proposes that the recourse to the pass is territorialized and that it can only be implemented in the event of an incidence rate above or equal to 50, over a continuous week in the department concerned.
This new version is far from the initial bill, which authorized the government to use the sanitary pass as it currently does until July 2022.
“It is important to put criteria. We can not leave a total faculty to the government to use this tool without a minimum of rules. I think we can move forward, maybe not on that one [ His amendment adopted], but on a slightly stringent supervision, “Rupin said. For several months, it has been indicated by its opposition to certain health measures deemed liberticides carried by the rest of its parliamentary group – like the pass. This positioning has earned him leaving the LMR Group Coordinator’s place that he was holding until the summer, the Commission of the National Assembly laws.
No “Blanc-Se Tree” on the part of the opposition
At the Commission, the rapporteur of the text, Jean-Pierre Pont (LRM), opposed Mr. Ripin’s proposals, arguing that he was against “thresholds or criteria too strict” against a ” unpredictable virus “. The leader of the deputies of France unsuitable, Mathilde Panot, or the member Antoine Savignat (the Republicans) had on the contrary supported Mr. Rupin’s proposal, including the “White-Tree” granted to the government.
The draft law extending until July 31, 2022 the possible remedy to the health care was presented in the Council of Ministers on Wednesday, under the fire of the critics of the oppositions, which dispute the decision to sprout the presidential election. Also, these debates around the extension of the sanitary pass intervene while, from Friday, October 15, the screening tests at COVID-19 are no longer reimbursed under certain conditions. PCR tests will cost 44 euros; Antigenics, 25 euros on weekdays and 30 euros on Sunday.
