Question 15598 — foreigners

Summary

Mr. Aurélien Dutremble draws the attention of the Minister of the Interior to the continued increase in funds allocated to the reception of asylum seekers in Burgundy Franche-Comté, in a context of sharp contraction in the resources allocated to local public services and local authorities. The decree published by the Government provides for an allocation of 33.8 million euros for reception centers for asylum seekers (CADA) of Bourgogne Franche-Comté in 2026, an increase of almost 5 million euros compared to 2025. This increase comes at a time when the inhabitants of Saône-et-Loire have been suffering, for several years, a constant deterioration of essential local public services. For the September 2026 school year alone, the school map project provides for the elimination of 22 classes in the department. Since 2016, more than 289 Classes have disappeared in Saône-et-Loire, a department that is among the most rural in Burgundy Franche-Comté, for budgetary reasons. At the same time, local authorities are called upon to participate in the recovery of public finances through the reduction of local spending, the contraction of certain allocations and the reduction of several State financial support mechanisms. Several associations of elected officials and Specialized organizations are also warning about the consequences of these budgetary restrictions, which weigh on rural municipalities and intermunicipalities, already weakened by inflation and the increase in operating costs. In many municipalities in Saône-et-Loire, mayors must now decide between the renovation of municipal facilities, support for community life or the abandonment of certain structuring investments. This situation fuels a growing incomprehension among residents, who note that the State is increasingly demanding more efforts from rural areas while sharply increasing expenses linked to the reception of asylum seekers. Also, he asks him what precise reasons justify the significant increase in credits devoted to CADA in Burgundy Franche-Comté; what criteria led to this budget increase in the region and how the Government intends to justify, to the inhabitants of Saône-et-Loire, trade-offs consisting of eliminating classes, reducing the investment capacities of rural communities and asking ever more efforts from municipalities, while at the same time increasing the resources devoted to migration policies.
