Summary

Ms. Claire O'Petit draws the attention of the Minister of Agriculture and Food to the necessary modification of the decree of December 26, 2012 including the Asian hornet in the list of second category health dangers. Indeed, while second category dangers concern dangers affecting the economy of one or more sectors for which it may be necessary to set up collective programs prevention, surveillance and control, those in the first category concern serious attacks on public health or major risks for the environment or French production capacities and require, in the general interest, compulsory prevention, surveillance or control measures. However, the ongoing disappearance of bees which is accelerating by the systematic attacks of Asian hornets around the hives is a planetary catastrophe that endangers humanity, since 75% of global food production depends on pollinating insects. Furthermore, since the entry into force of the decree of December 26, 2012, the proliferation of Asian hornets, in Normandy in particular, has been exponential and individuals are not taking the necessary measures to eradicate them given the prohibitive cost of certain interventions. when nests are located in places that are difficult to access. Also, in order to slow down the disappearance of bees, she asks him if he intends to contact the National Orientation Council for Animal and Plant Health Policy on the advisability of classifying the Asian hornet in the list of first category health dangers.
