Question 19646 — veterans and victims of war

Summary

Ms. Frédérique Tuffnell draws the attention of the Secretary of State, to the Minister of the Armed Forces, to the deep concern of the Departmental Union of Staff and Retirees of the Charente-Maritime Gendarmerie and more generally of associations of veterans and victims of war, resulting from the entry into force on December 3, 2019, of Ordinance No. 2018-1135 of December 12, 2018. This in fact concerns various provisions relating to the management of railway infrastructure and the opening to competition of rail passenger transport services. This order provides in its article 6, the deletion of the last four paragraphs of article L. 251-1 and the repeal of articles L. 251-2, L. 251-5 and L. 523-1 of the code of military disability pensions and war victims. These new provisions mean that the old combatants and their dependents will soon find themselves deprived of the various advantages which were until now an integral part of the right to compensation that the Republic recognizes for these women and men who fell or were seriously injured in the service of France. Thus, holders of a disability pension equal to or greater than 25% will see the benefit of reductions on SNCF fares removed. Likewise, the beneficiaries of a death or death for France will no longer be able to benefit from a free annual trip to visit the grave of their relative. She therefore asks him if measures are being considered to respond to the concerns of veterans.
