Question 18765 — veterans and war victims

Summary

Mrs. Lise Magnier draws the attention of the Minister of the Armed Forces to the right to compensation for wards of the Nation and war orphans. Tributes in the country to combatants and victims of war reflect the importance of the duty of memory, respect for the commitment and courage of those who sacrificed their lives. Their descendants were recognized with the unique status of wards of the Nation under the Third Republic. with the law of July 27, 1917. The recognition of France's "debt" desired by Georges Clémenceau towards his wards, allowed everyone to have an egalitarian position within society, to try to rebuild themselves and to confront prejudice. However, the situation of wards of the Nation and retired war orphans is deteriorating. They denounce precarious conditions after a life full of hardships. Two decrees caused inequalities between the pupils, destroying their union and their solidarity. The decrees of July 13, 2000 and July 27, 2004 provide for the payment of a life annuity or capital compensation for orphans whose parents had been victims of anti-Semitic persecution. There is nothing like this for the other orphans of the Nation. For more than ten years, initiatives have been put forward in vain to try to offer more decent living conditions to wards and create a right of reparation for them. Many bills have never been voted on and the situation remains unchanged. In order to implement the right of repair, a file could be the solution to count the beneficiaries of an old age pension. Also, she asks him what are the solutions and commitments that the Government will implement to organize the right to compensation for wards of the Nation and war orphans.
