M. Yves Daniel interroge M. le secrétaire d'État, auprès de la ministre de la transition écologique et solidaire, chargé des transports, sur les répercussions du décret n° 2019-850 du 20 août 2019 relatif aux services de transport d'utilité sociale (TUS). Entré en vigueur le 23 août 2019, ce décret vient compléter la partie réglementaire du code des transports par 5 articles qui précisent les modalités de fonctionnement de ces services assurés par des associations. Il indique notamment les prestations sociales y ouvrant droit et fixe un cadre légal aux initiatives qui se sont multipliées dans les territoires, principalement ruraux, pour lutter contre l'isolement des personnes qui ne disposent pas d'un moyen de déplacement personnel. En conditionnant l'accès des personnes à ces services de transports, une grande partie d'entre eux s'en voit privée, contribuant ainsi à créer de nouvelles injustices. En effet, les nouvelles dispositions instaurent des conditions différentes pour l'accès à un service de transport solidaire selon son lieu de résidence et ses ressources, limitent les déplacements dans un périmètre n'excédant pas 12 000 habitants ou pour rejoindre un pôle d'échange multimodal d'une unité urbaine voisine de plus de 12 000 habitants. Selon l'association Retz'Chauffeurs qui propose un service de déplacements accompagnés solidaires, le motif médical représente près de 50 % des demandes. Dans les zones rurales, il est rare qu'un établissement médical se trouve au sein d'un périmètre de 12 000 habitants. Les personnes concernées doivent donc majoritairement rejoindre la métropole la plus proche où se trouvent tous les services de santé. En limitant le lieu de destination au pôle multimodal de ces grandes unités urbaines, il en résulte une totale abstraction de ces personnes qui souffrent d'une mobilité réduite et qui sont en incapacité de prendre les transports en commun seules. Par ailleurs, en instaurant un maximum de revenu inférieur ou égal à 746 euros pour une personne seule et 1 119 euros pour un couple, cela exclut de facto ceux qui perçoivent un revenu inférieur au seuil de pauvreté (1 026 euros) et qui sont confrontés chaque jour à des problèmes de mobilité, particulièrement en milieu rural. Il y a également le problème de la non prise en compte des inégalités urbaines des territoires ruraux intermétropolitains où la présence de pôle multimodal n'est pas systématique. Alors que la solidarité et la mobilité sont des causes nationales, ce décret va justement à l'encontre même de la volonté de transformer en profondeur la politique des mobilités. Il lui demande donc quelles actions seront mises en place par le Gouvernement pour remédier à ces situations.
France · National Assembly · 11 October 2019
Mme Alexandra Valetta Ardisson interroge M. le ministre de l'intérieur sur la possibilité d'un ajustement de la durée de validité de l'attestation de demande d'asile des primo-demandeurs d'asile. Cette première attestation de demande d'asile valant admission au séjour délivrée par la préfecture est actuellement valable un mois. Ce document doit être transmis à l'Office français de protection des réfugiés et apatrides (OFPRA). Pour permettre au demandeur d'asile de séjourner plus longtemps en France de manière légale, celui-ci doit demander le renouvellement de l'attestation de demandeur d'asile, auprès du préfet de département dans lequel il réside ou est domicilié si au bout d'un mois, l'OFPRA n'a pas statué sur sa demande. Ce qui est généralement le cas. En principe, les demandeurs d'asile disposent d'un droit au maintien sur le territoire pendant toute la procédure de demande d'asile, et ce jusqu'à réponse définitive de l'OFPRA. Passer la durée de validité de l'attestation de demande d'asile des primo demandeurs d'asile à 3 mois, permettrait de couvrir la durée de traitement moyenne des demandes d'asile par l'OFPRA. Ainsi, l'administré n'aurait pas à se représenter devant les services de l'État, sauf en cas de dépassement du délai moyen de traitement. Cette idée a été évoquée lors d'un déplacement du groupe d'études sur les conditions d'accueil des migrants que Mme la députée préside. Elle souhaiterait connaître sa position sur cette question.
