Question 31136 — industry

Summary

Mr. Stéphane Baudu draws the attention of the Minister of the Economy, Finance and Recovery to the effectiveness of the measures envisaged to deal with the deterioration of the economic and social situation in the territories. Indeed, to face the economic consequences of the health crisis, companies are increasing restructuring projects in order to reduce their production costs and their fixed charges. These Restructurings are often announced with digital preservation of employment at the company level, either through operations of grouping of locations with capture of functions with higher added value, or through projects of total or partial transfer of activities. In both cases, the industrial sites located in what is now commonly called “peripheral France” are the more impacted, threatened with closure or dismantling to the detriment of the living areas they supply and the local authorities which had often supported them financially for many years. These projects will inevitably result in local job losses and leaks of skills and know-how. Medium-sized and rural towns were already suffering from a lack of economic attractiveness before the health crisis, they will not be able to cope with the simultaneous closure of businesses already established. The economic and social repercussions will be particularly painful and lasting for these territories. The crisis is here, undeniably, and we cannot avoid all of its effects. However, support systems, whether national or local, cannot support certain opportunistic maneuvers, sometimes envisaged before the crisis, going against the efforts made by the State and communities to maintain the dynamism and density of the French industrial network. Therefore, he would like to know the measures that the State plans to implement to fight against the worsening of the territorial divide which is coming and more particularly what are the provisions provided for by the new ARME system, put in place since the law No. 2020-734 of June 17, 2020 relating to various provisions linked to the health crisis, other urgent measures as well as the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union in terms of compensation and whether it is planned, in this sense, to condition government aid on the conservation of industrial sites and jobs in the territories.
