Question 17165 — housing

Summary

Ms. Annick Cousin questions the Minister Delegate to the Minister for Ecological Transition and Territorial Cohesion, responsible for housing, on the allocation of the first social housing in the municipalities. As of January 1, 2023, 15.9% of primary residences in France are social rental housing, or 5.3 million social housing units. The number of applications for social housing is 4.3 times higher than the number of housing units available for rental during the year. However, despite their central role, mayors have little power within the commissions for allocating social rental housing. However, they are best placed to understand the problems of their city and its development within these commissions. During his general policy speech, the Prime Minister announced that the Government would “give its hand to mayors in the allocation of the first social housing built in their municipality. This request has been made for many years by local elected officials from various political backgrounds. A bill to this effect was adopted a few months ago in the Senate. The minister also mentioned a reform of the so-called “SRU” law. She asks him to enlighten her on the progress of this measure as well as the timetable to be this subject.
