Question 16962 — overseas

Summary

Mr. Tematai Le Gayic questions the Minister of the Economy, Finance and Industrial and Digital Sovereignty on the increase in customs agents in Polynesia during the period of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games for the surfing event in Teahupo'o. The gendarmerie and municipal police are responsible for supervising and securing this event. As such, 27 reserve gendarmes are in training in order to strengthen the ranks. For good reason, such an event promises an increase in tourist numbers on the island of Tahiti. For the mobilized agents, this means paroxysmal mobilization and presence. Customs agents in Polynesia are extremely mobilized. To put it in context, every year, drug seizures in the territory of Polynesia increase. Mr. Darmanin also believed that “the fight against ice trafficking has become a priority for public services in French Polynesia. The Pacific territories are crossing points for drug trafficking on the maritime route of drug traffickers from South America to Australia or New Zealand. The MP fears that the excitement linked to the Olympic Games without the adequate control which should temper it will have deleterious consequences on the Maohi population. As such, the demands of customs agents in Polynesia, to enable them to be fully present during the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, include 100% coverage of childcare costs and benefit from the same regime as their metropolitan counterparts. He therefore asks him, in order to protect the Maohi population and the island of Tahiti and to allow the mobilized people to work in decent conditions, if he intends to recruit additional customs agents for the period of the Olympic Games and accede to the aforementioned demands.
