Question 7602 — refugees and stateless persons

Summary

Ms. Pascale Martin questions the Minister Delegate to the Minister for Ecological Transition and Territorial Cohesion, responsible for cities and housing, on the terms of the exceptional measure of support for citizen hosts. According to the French Office for Immigration and Integration, since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, more than 110,000 Ukrainians have found refuge in France. At the end of February 2023, the Ministry of the Interior declared that around 30,000 people had been housed with citizens. In order to provide support to families who voluntarily host Ukrainian refugees, the Prime Minister announced at the beginning of October 2022 the granting of exceptional aid. Decree No. 2022-1441 of November 17, 2022 specifies the terms: the aid is aimed at all families who accommodated one or more people free of charge, for a period equal to or greater than 90 days, between April 1 and December 31, 2022. The interpretation of the decree may suggest that when accommodation is continued after December 31, 2022, aid may be requested. However, the application must be submitted on a platform whose closing is scheduled for April 30, 2023. The platform's FAQ confirms that the 90 days must be completed before the deadline of December 31, 2022. Beyond this date, the exceptional support measure cannot be mobilized. Therefore, for all people who offered accommodation after October 1, 2022, no financial assistance can be granted to them. In any case, this is the response that was given to a couple from Dordogne who found themselves in this situation. This leads to an energy problem, with high bills for landlords and landladies. She therefore asks him if he can guarantee the Government's firm desire to support all families who voluntarily host Ukrainian refugees: on the one hand by modifying the criterion of 90 cumulative days in 2022 and on the other hand by extending this exceptional measure for the year 2023.
