The last budget of the QuinQennate Macron does not stop annoying the oppositions. After a heated examination at the National Assembly, which adopted it at first reading Tuesday, November 16, it was the Tour of the Senate to seize the bill of finance 2022, from Thursday, November 18. But his review could run short: the Republicans (LR) group plans to not vote the first part of the text, which concerns revenue, at the end of the debates, Tuesday, November 23. This rejection would lead to stopping its course before the second part review, which details expenditures per department. And to shorten the debate, returning the text directly before the members for a second reading.
“It is to what we are moving, confirms Jean-François Husson, the rapporteur (LR) of the Finance Committee of the Senate. A bill of finance as different from the familical elements of departure, In a prepreg context, queries. “
At the origin of the Senators’ IRE, the form but also the substance of the text. As the members before it, the Senate right moves from the number of measures added by government amendment, and their amount (investment plan France 2030, youth engagement contract …), while the initial copy was very light. “By amendments and quasi-daily statements, the government dumps new decisions and ignores as intermediate bodies. Under the pretext of speed, one person alone decides in the cockpit. We saw what it gave at the moment. “Yellow Vests” “, warns Mr. Husson.
” Euphoric budget “
On the merits, the Senator of Meurthe-et-Moselle castigates the billions of expenses added by the executive to the budget in the fall. “We were waiting for the end of the” whatever it cost “, we see that the government minimizes the economic recovery in order to keep provisions in terms of tax revenue to make use if necessary. There is something to wonder about The sincerity of the approach “, will he until advance. A reference to the criticism of the Court of Auditors, which had raised, in 2017, “elements of insincerity” in the last budget of the previous five-year, scandalizing the members of the Holland government.
The other opposition groups are partly aligned with LR critics. But the left and the centrists consider that Parliament is intended to consider the budget and debate it. “It is a budget that could be described as euphoric, it is based on an abyssal deficit of 155 billion euros, and we know very well that it will be modified after the elections, says Hervé Marseille, President of the Centrist Group In the Senate. But we can not deprive yourself of a discussion. “
