a last Council of Ministers at the Elysée before the summer holidays

A break, but not a real disconnect with their work. Friday, July 29, the ministers are preparing to take their summer vacation. However, members of the government must make themselves available in case they are called upon. “Ministers are asked to stay in Paris until August 7, that is to say until the end of parliamentary work for the final adoption of the bill on purchasing power and then for that of the amending budget”, reveals Caroline Motte.

Ministers will then be able to take leave, but subject to certain conditions set by the Head of State. “They will be able to breathe for a fortnight, but on condition that they remain reachable and mobilized at all times, less than two hours from Paris. This last Council of Ministers is also an opportunity to learn lessons, to learn the review of this yearsummarizes Caroline Motte. The government will get back to work on August 24, with priority given to the energy planning bill and a sobriety plan as winter approaches.
