Question 4526 — overseas

Summary

Mr. Tematai Le Gayic questions the Minister of the Interior and Overseas Territories on the increase in gendarmerie personnel and the resources allocated to the adapted military service regiment (RSMA) in Polynesia. On December 14, 2022, the draft orientation and programming law for the Ministry of the Interior was definitively adopted and provides in particular for an increase in the interior budget of fifteen billion euros, the recruitment of 8,500 police officers and gendarmes over the next five years and the establishment of two hundred new gendarmerie brigades. In Polynesia, there are nearly 650 gendarmes including permanent soldiers and civilians, mobile gendarmes and reservists linked by contract. According to figures from the High Commission of the Republic in Polynesia, only 42% of gendarmes come from Polynesia. The MP therefore asks the Minister, in view of the budget and staff increases provided for by the draft orientation and programming law of the Ministry of the Interior, to kindly indicate whether the gendarmerie staff in Polynesia will be increased, the units which will be affected by this increase, the stages of this increase and the project which underlies this increase. In the same way, the budget allocated to adapted military service (SMA) was increased by thirty million euros in order to implement the SMA 2025+ plan and continue projects initiated in 2022, such as the establishment of a new company in Hao. One of the axes that characterize the SMA 2025+ plan is the opening of the SMA to “dropout miners”. The expansion of the public likely to join an RSMA company to a minor public and the establishment of a company in Hao questions the role of the SMA, present in the overseas and in Périgueux, as a professionalization tool. He asks him to please indicate the project underlying this increase and the objectives pursued by it.
