Question 12473 — pensions: general

Summary

Mr. Stéphane Demilly draws the attention of the Minister of the Economy and Finance to the announcement to limit the revaluation of retirement pensions to 0.3% in 2019 and 2020 while no revaluation is planned for 2018. This measure, which is part of a context of rising inflation (1.7% in 2018 and 2% planned for 2019), will therefore reduce the purchasing power of retirees by around 6% over 3 years. Furthermore, this decision adds to the increase in the CSG which took place on January 1, 2018. The MP recalls that retirement pensions are not social assistance, they are rights acquired through contributions paid throughout professional life. This government announcement therefore makes retirees a variable in the adjustment of state finances. In this context, the MP alerts the Minister of the Economy and Finance to the need to preserve the purchasing power of retirees. Many of them find themselves in fragile situations that need to be taken seriously into consideration. He therefore asks him what measures he plans to take in order to guarantee and preserve the purchasing power of retirees.
