Question 16749 — health professions

Summary

Mr. Jean-Pierre Bataille draws the attention of the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and People with Disabilities to the delay in the publication of the implementing decree provided for in Article 5 of Law No. 2025-623 of July 9, 2025 aimed at strengthening the safety of health professionals. This law, adopted following numerous alerts relating to the increase in violence committed against health professionals, made it possible to significantly strengthen their legal protection. In particular, it increased the penalties applicable to violence committed against the staff of health establishments or within their premises, extended the offense of contempt to all self-employed health professionals and staff of health establishments, increased the sanctions applicable to theft of medical or paramedical equipment and made it easier to file a complaint. by employers as well as the constitution of a civil party. However, article 5 of this law refers to a decree the task of specifying the modalities according to which professional orders or regional unions of health professionals can file complaints on behalf of doctors, dental surgeons, midwives, pharmacists, nurses, masseurs-physiotherapists or chiropodists-podiatrists who expressly do so. request. This same decree must also determine the representative body authorized to file a complaint on behalf of other liberal professionals mentioned in part four of the public health code. However, according to the report relating to the implementation of this law established under article 67 of law no. 2004-1343 of December 9, 2004 on the simplification of the law, no regulatory text had been taken as of March 30, 2026 and since then. More broadly, it appears that the law enforcement barometer, available on the National Assembly website, reports a decree published under a reference unrelated to the purpose of this law, which creates a certain confusion as to the real state of its implementation. Almost a year after the promulgation of this text expected by all health professionals, the absence of this decree deprives them of a system intended to facilitate their procedures when they are victims of violence, threats or insults in the exercise of their functions. Faced with this situation, the MP questions the Government's intentions. In this context, he asks him when he intends to publish the decree provided for in article 5 of the law of July 9, 2025 and what modalities are currently planned in order to allow orders professionals, regional unions of health professionals and relevant representative bodies to effectively exercise this right to file complaints for the benefit of health professionals who are victims of attacks in the exercise of their missions.
