This measure is part of the “new sanctions” desired by the Prime Minister to respond to his formula “you break, you repair”.

Four days after his speech on violence against minorsGabriel Attal announced, Monday April 22, that the Minister of Justice, Eric Dupond-Moretti, will sign “next week” the text which will allow the entry into force “as soon as the holidays return” work of educational interest for minors under 16 years of age. Zone B, the last to go on spring break, must resume classes on Monday, May 6.

Traveling Monday to an educational boarding school in Nice, the Prime Minister explained that this measure was part of the aspect of “new sanctions” mentioned during his general policy speech in January and which aim to respond to his formula “you break, you repair; you dirty, you clean; you challenge authority, we teach you to respect it”.

The device is similar to the community service sentence, which can only be imposed on people over 16 years of age. “Certain minors aged between 13 and 16, who have already dropped out of school and have committed offenses may need to get involved in concrete actions,” Matignon pleaded with franceinfo in January.
