Does the pension reform project provide for a cap on the minimum pension at 1,200 euros, in accordance with the promise made by the government when the project was presented?
Does the pension reform provide for a minimum pension of 1,200 euros? The promise had been made by the government when the project was presented. According to Elisabeth Borne, someone who has contributed all his life, paid around the Smic, will be able to leave with 1,200 euros in retirement. Contrary to what has been said, the text does not provide for a minimum pension of 1,200 euros, but a revaluation of the MICO, the minimum contributory. This will increase by 100 euros under certain conditions.
A false promise
In addition to having contributed all his life, paid around the Smic, it will be necessary to have worked full time to hope for these 100 euros increase. The government spokesman denies having said anything else. However, journalist Thomas Snégaroff points out to him that he had announced the opposite on January 11, 2023. Olivier Véran is visibly embarrassed, because yes, this false promise of a minimum of 1,200 euros in retirement has been made by several majority members.
