Elisabeth Borne took responsibility for her government on the revenue side of the draft Social Security budget for 2024 on Wednesday October 25. This is her third 49.3 since the resumption of parliamentary work in September and the 14th since her arrival at Matignon.

The La France insoumise group has already announced its intention to table a motion of censure, with the signatures of communist and environmentalist deputies. The National Rally group will also table its own motion.

“Despite our overtures, once again, the practice according to which opposition groups refuse to vote on a budget, whatever it may be, has prevailed,” declared Elisabeth Borne during a short statement from the podium of the National Assembly. Article 49.3 of the Constitution allows the adoption of a text without a vote, unless a motion of censure is adopted against the government.
