Question 15551 — security of property and people

Summary

Mr. Nicolas Pacquot questions the Minister of the Interior and Overseas Territories on the possibility of extending the activity of volunteer firefighters beyond the age of 65. Currently, articles R. 723-7 and R. 723-52 of the internal security code establish an automatic cessation of activity at the age of 60 for volunteer firefighters, with a possible extension up to 65 years of age subject to meeting the conditions. medical requirements. Taking into account the societal changes marked by the extension of lifespans and careers, as well as the difficulties encountered by many regions in maintaining sufficient numbers of volunteer firefighters, the Ministry of the Interior and Overseas had begun to consider the possibility of extending, under medical conditions, the age limit for cessation of activity of firefighters. volunteers over 65 years old. This consultation process could potentially lead to a regulatory change during the year 2024. A development which would be particularly judicious when we know that volunteer firefighters represent 78% of the fire service workforce, and what is more in a context where the availability of volunteers is often in short supply between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m., most of them being young professionals. Also, he asks where these reflections are and if the Government is considering this regulatory change this year.
