Question 15484 — taxes and duties

Summary

Ms. Josiane Corneloup draws the attention of the Minister of the Economy and Finance to the recent suspension of the project to eliminate the internal consumption tax on energy products (TICPE) applied to non-road diesel (GNR), which, if it had been implemented, would have considerably reduced the margins of public works companies. The low margin rate, of the order of 2%, if it were to be undermined, would not remain without impact on SMEs in the sector. Another deleterious effect of such a measure: the revision of current contracts, which will lead to an increase in the cost of the work passed on to the client, and in particular to the local authorities which provide two thirds of the companies' order books. The latter, suffering from reductions in allocations for several years, would not be able to assume these increases. While the sector public works is recovering from a long and serious crisis, and needs to recruit to meet increased demand, it asks it to maintain the reduced rate of the TICPE, which would avoid destabilizing an entire section of the French economy. Furthermore, the energy transition is certainly necessary but the first measure to consider is to reduce consumption by actively fighting against “thermal sieves”. But the budget dedicated to the energy transition tax credit (CITE) was halved from 1.7 billion euros in 2018 to 800 million euros in 2019, further excluding windows which are very often the gateway to more substantial work. She asks him how to achieve the objective of energy renovation of 500,000 homes when the CITE, an excellent lever for achieving this goal, is reduced by half. In addition, she asks him to extend the zero-rate loan (PTZ) for new housing in zones B2 and C until December 31, 2021, in the name of equity between rural home buyers and those living in urban areas.
