Question 34032 — road safety

Summary

Since March 2020 and the start of the health crisis, the State has been mobilized to support businesses impacted by the measures aimed at coping with the Covid-19 epidemic. Since the start of the crisis, State support for businesses has amounted to nearly 230 billion euros: Exemptions from charges and payment assistance: €6-8 billion Solidarity fund, fixed costs, recovery aid, ski lifts: €38 billion PGE: €142 billion Activity partial: €35.6 billion Rent (undisbursed): estimated at €700 million Closure aid: estimated at €700 million Transition fund: €3 billion These aid measures have made it possible to limit the number of business failures (in October 2021, the number of failures is down 48% compared to the same period in 2019) but also to enable a strong resumption of activity: we have regained our pre-crisis level of growth and have a level of unrivaled employment for almost half a century. While the health crisis is not over, the State will continue to support businesses. Faced with the fifth wave, some 1,200 nightclubs have been forced to close: the State will cover all costs during the closure period. Furthermore, a certain number of sectors are facing cascading cancellations, which could lead to loss of figures. business: the events sector, caterers or even travel agencies. The Government is obviously listening to these economic sectors but it is still too early to have a complete analysis of the impact of the health crisis on their activity, which results from recommendations and not prohibitions. Minister Bruno LE MAIRE affirmed: if a significant drop in activity is confirmed, the State will take the necessary measures, and these companies will be assisted on a case-by-case basis.
