After the floods of recent months in Pas-de-Calais, “it’s dragging on the insurers’ side”, exclaims Xavier Bertrand, Wednesday February 28 on franceinfo. “Why don’t all insurers play the game? We wrote, with Jean-Claude Leroy, the president of the Pas-de-Calais department, to France insurers, that they are moving their members!”launches the president of Les Républicains (LR) of the Hauts-de-France region. “We have been talking about losses since November. There are individuals who have still not been compensated!” he points.
To the Prime Minister, the elected official “asked for on-call hours” of State “on the ground, so that we can concretely explain how compensation will be provided” And “in what conditions”. “When you know you can’t return home, you have to organize yourself: ‘what do we do for the children, the children’s school, I have to look for a new house, find a rental for the moment…’”he lists. “It’s been three weeks.” since Gabriel Attal’s last trip alongside the victims, and “there are still no such offices”.
On the question of work following these bad weather, he believes that‘”there must be a boss, who can be the prefect. Even if there are unpopular decisions, I will follow his decision in the second, so that we can say ‘now, things are going well, We are doing the absolutely necessary work to ensure that this does not happen again.'”. As for the destruction of housing, they “will most certainly be very few in number.” “People want to continue living, and I need to keep the population who want to stay in Pas-de-Calais,” he adds.
