The examination of the pension reform will begin in the Senate on Thursday March 2, for two weeks of debate. The right and the center, in the majority, are in favor of the reform, but the Republicans set their conditions on the retirement of mothers and special plans.
Act I of the pension reform was played out in the National Assembly with heated debates. Act II will take place in the Senate, reputed to be calmer. The text will be examined in committee on Tuesday, February 28, then in the Senate on Thursday. Two weeks of debates are planned. The right and the centre, in the majority, are in favor of the reform, but the Republicans (LR) set their conditions.
The subject of special diets
First, for mothers with full careers, LR offers two options: a 5% premium or early retirement at age 63. The government says it is open to this proposal. The second requirement of LR is to tighten the text on the special regimes to accelerate their convergence with the general regime from 2025. The RATP and the electricity and gas industries would be concerned in particular. The end of special regimes could then gradually apply to agents in place, and not only to new recruits. The government is not closing the door.
