Question 1281 — elected officials

Summary

Mr. Jean-Jacques Gaultier draws the attention of the Minister of State, Minister of the Interior, to the defamatory remarks and other insults to which local elected officials are subject, on social networks in the context of the exercise of their functions as representatives of the State, that is to say in the implementation of prefectural and national measures. On this subject, they have no other recourse than to file a complaint, which is not a reactive and effective response to defamation given the speed of circulation of defamation on social networks. He asks him if local elected officials, who are often poor in small towns, could not benefit from technical support within the ministry, in the form of a call or a report within the framework of their prerogatives as representatives of the State. It could also be considered to obtain a right of reply from the operators like newspapers which are obliged to publish court decisions relating to articles affecting people and their private lives.
