Question 11346 — housing

Summary

Mr. Pierrick Courbon draws the attention of the Minister of National Education to the possibility for local authorities to use vacant accommodation in educational establishments for emergency accommodation. Homelessness is now a major national cause. Precariousness is increasing and the Loire department, for example, is no exception to this situation. Today, more than 300 people sleep every day in the street in Saint-Etienne territory. State services are not able to implement their obligation to guarantee emergency housing to any person in distress (DALO law of March 5, 2007). Associations and citizens are mobilizing and observing that certain accommodation in educational establishments, particularly in secondary schools, is currently vacant and is not subject to any allocation, because less and less fewer national education personnel use it. This situation deprives the educational establishments concerned of revenue and children and their families of a roof over their heads. Thus, these apartments, technically available, could, in a temporary and supervised manner, constitute a transitional accommodation solution for families of children attending these establishments who find themselves in a situation of distress. Nevertheless, these Staff accommodation available in educational establishments, particularly middle and high schools, is currently reserved for academic staff or civil servants of local authorities (articles R. 216-4 to R. 216-19 of the education code). However, certain communities, owners of these accommodations, would like to be able to rent them, in particular to families of children attending these establishments who have problems accessing housing, particularly in tense areas. Likewise, collectives, associations, are today only waiting for a deliberation of the communities concerned (municipalities, departments, regions) to legally enter into agreements for the precarious occupation of said housing. He therefore asks him if a change in the regulations could be considered in order to allow rentals to others persons other than those referred to in the aforementioned articles of the education code and under what conditions the communities concerned could then make this accommodation available if the local general interest, or the achievement of a social or humanitarian objective, were effectively demonstrated.
