“There is no emergency” to bring together the Joint Joint Commission to examine the bill on immigration, said Tuesday December 12 on franceinfo the UDI senator from Hauts-de-Seine Hervé Marseille, president of the centrist Union group in the Senate, after the vote on Monday of the motion to reject the government’s text. The text is referred to a Joint Joint Commission, the executive wanting it to meet “as quickly as possible”as government spokesperson Olivier Véran declared.
“We recommend, in the Senate, that we take the time”insists Hervé Marseille, “so that we can exchange, discuss. There is no point in bringing together a Joint Commission if it never comes to fruition.” “We don’t have to reunite her now.” The senator explains that parliamentarians will “start from the Senate text”but who “is not satisfactory for our colleagues in the Assembly”. He believes that it is necessary “to be able to discuss beforehand to prepare” this CMP. Because according to him, “if we bring it together in the coming days, it is a safe bet that we will not arrive at a conclusive Joint Commission.”
The government’s choice to call on a Joint Commission to continue work on its text “is satisfactory”, recognizes Hervé Marseille. “What is less satisfactory is the desire to act quickly. It is important that we take the time to think about what happened, the situation, its consequences, the text.” The president of the centrist Union group in the Senate recalls that “it is not the government which will summon” the CMP, “he is the president of the Law Commission of the National Assembly”Sacha Houlié, who will summon her. “The government expresses an opinion, but it is President Houlié who will decide when he will convene the commission.”
