Question 9725 — associations and foundations

Summary

The problems linked to aging and the growing importance of elderly populations require representation of retirees and elderly people in the various national and local organizations, so that they can take a more complete part in decisions. To achieve this objective, the participation of retirees and elderly people in bodies which deal with problems concerning them is effective in several organizations. With regard to the social security organizations of the general system, it should be noted that Article L. 222-5 of the Social Security Code provides that the national old-age insurance fund is administered by a Board of Directors, managed equally, comprising 30 administrators sitting with deliberative rights, including four qualified people in the fields of activity of old-age insurance funds. and designated by the competent authority of the State, including at least one representative of retirees. The current composition of the board of directors includes two retiree representatives. For consistency, the representation of retirees is also provided for by article L. 215-2 of the same code for retirement and occupational health insurance funds. The same goes for the board of directors of most pension funds of liberal professions where retirees are represented as such in a specific college. The High Council for the Family, Children and Age, which was established by the law of December 28, 2015 relating to the adaptation of society to aging, replacing in particular the national committee of retirees and the elderly, has the mission of leading public debate and providing the public authorities with prospective expertise and transversal on issues related to family and childhood, advancing age, society's adaptation to aging and well-treatment, in an intergenerational approach. The decree of October 25, 2016 specifies its operation as well as its composition. Within the college specializing in the field of age which includes eighty-seven members, nineteen members represent trade union organizations and associations of retired people, elderly people and their families, a representative has already been designated by the French Confederation of Retirees as well as several federations which make it up.
