Question 15761 — energy and fuels

Summary

Ms. Hélène Laporte draws the attention of the Minister of the Economy, Finance and Industrial, Energy and Digital Sovereignty to the implementation of aid for so-called “high roller” workers. On May 27, 2026, the Government opened a window to submit a request for “high rollers” assistance. This fuel allowance, worth 100 euros, should benefit low-income workers who use a vehicle personal for professional purposes. The worker must prove that he travels in this context a distance greater than 15 kilometers per home-workplace journey or an annual distance greater than 8,000 kilometers. Announced by the Prime Minister on April 21, 2026, this measure was introduced with the aim of responding to the persistent rise in fuel prices. However, it excludes thousands of French people because this aid is in fact awarded on the basis of the tax and professional situation of the year 2024 and not on the current situation of the applicants in 2026. A person who has recently become a “frequent driver”, also a victim of the increase in fuel prices, cannot therefore benefit from it. This emergency measure, although presented as a response to the current crisis, is incoherent since beyond excluding thousands of French people, it intervenes among people who no longer make these journeys, the year 2024 being the only reference year. She therefore wishes to request better consistency of the system by basing this measure on the current reality of the professional and fiscal situations of heavy riders.
