Question 5998 — poverty

Summary

Mrs Anaïs Belouassa-Cherifi questions the Minister of Labor, Health, Solidarity and Families on the objective of reducing poverty. Article L. 115-4-1 code of social action and families introduced by the 2008 law on the RSA establishes the obligation for the Government to define a quantified objective for reducing poverty and to report, each year, to Parliament, on the conditions for achieving this objective and the measures and financial means implemented to meet them. The first objective, adopted in 2008 for the duration of the five-year term, was to reduce the number of people in poverty in the country from 7.8 million to 5.2 million. However, 9.1 million people were in poverty in 2022 according to the latest statistics from INSEE. Since 2011, the State has not set itself any poverty reduction objective and it has not not reported on his actions to parliament. Without a clearly defined objective known to all public and private stakeholders, France will not be able to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of existing measures in the fight against poverty in order to be able to complete them. In view of these arguments, she asks her if she will set a poverty reduction objective and on what date the annual report will be submitted to parliament.
