Question 14555 — legal time

Summary

Mr. Jean-Pierre Vigier draws the attention of the Minister of State, Minister for Ecological and Inclusive Transition, to the summer time system which consists of advancing legal time by sixty minutes during the summer period compared to the rest of the year. Established in France by Decree No. 75-866 of September 19, 1975 following the first oil shock, the transition to double summer time generates numerous disadvantages constantly denounced since its introduction, in particular fatigue mainly felt by the elderly and children, a necessary shift in activities during episodes of high heat and an impact on pollution. Considering the energy savings announced when this system was implemented, the disadvantages experienced by the population clearly exceed the advantages expected. Also, he thanks him for kindly tell him whether it is the Government's intention to return to the summer time system, in particular by intervening with European authorities.
