Question 18179 — people with disabilities

Summary

Mr. Jean-Pierre Cubertafon draws the attention of the Secretary of State to the Prime Minister, responsible for disabled people, to the use of the increase for third parties. The third party supplement is paid due to the obligation to use the assistance of a third person to carry out ordinary acts of life such as getting up, dressing, washing or eating. It can be added to the AAH as well as to disability pension. Today, when people with disabilities contact social services to renew certain social assistance, they are told that the amount of the third-party increase is taken into account as a resource in the calculation of assistance and is often entirely absorbed by the accommodation establishments without additional support. The consequence is that many people disabled do not see their “remainder of life” increase despite the payment of this increase. However, many expenses remain to be covered between clothing, hygiene products or leisure activities as well as the expenses of family caregivers. We therefore see that a benefit, allocated to better meet the needs of a person through a third party, is in fact used like any other service, often for costs related to maintenance and accommodation in an establishment without additional support. Also, he would like to know the state of his ministry's thinking on this issue. He also asks him if any avenues are being studied to increase the “remainder to live” of people with disabilities.
