The Head of State announced, on January 11 in Nice, his proposals in terms of security. This programming bill on security must be presented to the Council of Ministers on March 16, a few weeks before the first round. One of its key measures is to double the number of police officers by 2030, “to allow” to these “to be more on the ground” according to Maud Bregeon. “At the end of this five-year term, there will be more police officers in the constituencies than in 2017”, added the municipal councilor of Levallois (Hauts-de-Seine).
