Question 11094 — overseas

Summary

Mr. David Lorion draws the attention of the Minister of Action and Public Accounts to the planned end of the temporary retirement allowance (ITR). Established by a decree of November 10, 1952, the ITR constitutes a retirement pension increase system paid to retirees from the State civil service residing in six overseas territories: Reunion, New Caledonia, Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, Wallis-et-Futuna, Polynesia French. The establishment of the ITR initially pursued two objectives: to compensate for the monetary differences between the mainland and the overseas territories where the CFA franc and the CFP franc were current and to compensate for the length and arduousness of journeys as well as isolation. The amended finance law for 2008 scheduled the extinction of this compensation by a gradual lowering of its ceiling of 10% per year. In 2028, the device will therefore have disappeared. Even the gradual abolition of the ITR risks leading to increasing impoverishment of state agents who will cease their activities from 2018 and who will choose to remain in overseas territory. The most impacted will be former civil servants in categories B and C. These people will lose their right to the additional salary which constitutes a significant part of their remuneration. activity while the cost of living is significantly higher than in mainland France, particularly the price of food products. Undoubtedly, many of them will request social assistance schemes from the various local authorities which will see their expenses increase. It would be desirable for the Government to take stock of the situation by carrying out a census of the state civil servants concerned and establish an interministerial working group responsible for designing a substitute compensatory mechanism. He asks him to please take an initiative in this direction.
