Question 10681 — consular chambers

Summary

Ms. Valérie Beauvais draws the attention of the Minister of the Economy and Finance to the commitment made by the Government to the national representation to stabilize, after the tax reduction for room costs of 150 million euros included in the finance law for 2018, the tax resources allocated to the chambers of commerce and industry (CCI) until the end of the mandate. Thus, on October 21, 2017 in public session at the Assembly nationally, the Minister of Action and Public Accounts had indicated that the contribution of the CCIs to the public effort was “only once for the entire five-year period”. On November 14, 2017, in the Senate Economic Affairs Committee, the Minister of the Economy and Finance made the same commitment to the chambers: “we undertake to guarantee the stability of their resources in 2019-2022”. Moreover, several responses from the Ministry of the Economy and Finance to written parliamentary questions assured that “the Government has made a commitment, within the framework of the 2018-2020 three-year trajectory, that no further reduction will be made in 2019 and 2020, in order to give the network multi-year visibility on its resources”. However, on May 28, 2018, during the meeting of the executive committee of the National Industry Council, the Prime Minister announced a further reduction of 100 million euros in the tax allocated to CCIs in 2019. Consequently, she asked him if the Government intends to reverse this latest announcement in order to respect the word and the commitments made to the national representation, both in the National Assembly and in the Senate.
