The Prime Minister, Elisabeth Borne, confirmed, Tuesday, June 7, the payment of a food check at the start of the school year, for low-income families. To make it quick and simple, a transfer will be paid directly to the account of the French people concerned.
Exit the food check, the government has finally decided to opt for a bank transfer, which will support the most modest in the face of inflation. The aid can be used to pay all expenses, even for fuel and heating. It will vary depending on the composition of the household. If the measure is adopted in Parliament, it should be put in place at the start of the school year.
The amount of the aid is not yet defined. According to some tracks, it could be between 50 and 150 euros. “It’s always taken, but it’s a bit ridiculous”believes a Frenchman, while another believes that he “it should be more often”. According to several associations, between 3 and 5 million households could be eligible for the measure. A new device should be studied in a second step, in order to allow all French people to buy quality, local and organic food products.
