(FRANCE 2)
The Prime Minister detailed several measures envisaged by the presidential camp to increase the purchasing power of the middle classes, on France 2 as well as in an interview with “Parisien” and the regional press.
“Earn more and spend less.” Prime Minister Gabriel Attal detailed several measures of the presidential camp’s program for the legislative election campaign, Saturday June 15, in an interview with Parisian and in several regional daily press titles as well as in the Journal de 20 Heures on France 2.
Most of the measures mentioned by the Prime Minister concern purchasing power. He notably mentioned his desire to raise the ceiling of the value sharing bonus (nicknamed “Macron bonus”), paid voluntarily by the employer to employees and partly tax-exempt, from “3,000” has “10,000 euros” per year “without charge or tax”.
The presidential camp “commits” has “revalue pensions by the amount of inflation”affirms on France 2 Gabriel Attal, who also mentions in the regional press the establishment of“group purchases” for school supplies which would reduce their price by up to 15%, or even a “energy renovation fund” housing of “middle and working classes”. The latter, which will make it possible to renovate 300,000 additional homes by 2027, will be financed by a tax on share buybacks – the government was already considering integrating into the next finance bill (PLF) a measure to tax companies that buy back their own shares.
Gabriel Attal also proposes to work on the establishment of complementary health insurance “public” at 1 euro per day for those who are not covered by mutual insurance. Faced with the rise in prices of supplementary health insurance contracts, some mutual insurance managers and experts are raising the idea of less comprehensive and less expensive contracts.
In the regional press, the Prime Minister also promises to exempt first-time middle-class property buyers from notary fees of up to 250,000 euros. “Notary fees” include notary fees but also a tax, transfer duties for valuable consideration (DMTO), which finances communities. The rest of the program will be presented “Start of the week”specifies the Prime Minister.
