Question 13709 — local authorities

Summary

Mr. Hervé Saulignac draws the attention of the Minister of Territorial Cohesion and Relations with Local Authorities to the possibility of deploying videoconferencing in order to be able to participate in a deliberative assembly and more particularly in rural territories. Indeed, the taking into account, for the calculation of a quorum, of members participating in a deliberative assembly by videoconference, must be provided for and framed by a text. In a context of development of e-administration, dematerialization, rationalization of costs and significant future expansion of the size of certain existing local authorities, many decision-making bodies of local authorities cannot use videoconferencing means because, in the absence of texts, it is not possible to consider that the members who participate in said bodies are deemed present for the calculation of quorum. In this context, he asks whether the Government intends to promote videoconferencing as a real tool for dematerialization and sustainable development and a real tool for organizing decision-making power, by extending the scope of application of Order No. 2014-1329 of November 6, 2014, relating to remote deliberations of administrative bodies of a collegial nature, to local authorities and their groups.
