Question 27815 — State

Summary

Mr. François-Michel Lambert questions the Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition on article L. 121-10 of the environmental code relating to the referral to the National Commission for Public Debate as part of a reform project relating to public policy. Indeed, Ordinance No. 2016-1060 of August 3, 2016 intended to ensure public information and participation in the development of certain decisions likely to have a impact on the environment strengthens the role of the National Commission for Public Debate (CNDP) as well as the right of initiative by modifying the environmental code and in particular its article L. 121-10. According to it, the Government, but above all five hundred thousand adult nationals of the European Union residing in France or sixty deputies or sixty senators can contact the CNDP with a view to organizing a national public debate on a reform project relating to a public policy having a significant effect on the environment or land use planning. The expression “sixty deputies or sixty senators” is nevertheless imprecise and does not allow us to measure the extent of its meaning. Some CNDP documents do use the term “parliamentarians”, but it also does not allow us to fully understand its scope, namely whether the CNDP can be also seized by a group of sixty parliamentarians bringing together deputies and senators. He then asks him to please provide this clarification in order to have a fair and precise understanding of article L. 121-10 of the environmental code.
