The deputies of the majority plan to tackle tax loopholes unfavorable to the environment in order to complete the budget for 2024 which must be examined this fall in Parliament, explained Sunday on Radio J the president of the Renaissance group in the Assembly, Sylvain Maillard.
We are going to discuss all the niches that are not ecological, that is to say a good thirty, indicated the deputy of Paris, without specifying the amount of savings hoped for.
Among these tax loopholes, the research tax credit (CIR) must be viewed through the prism of the greening of the economy, argued Mr. Maillard, according to whom the public money invested through tax loopholes must participate in changing the behavior of the producer or the consumer, and make them tend towards an ecological behavior.
This measure could be a means of supporting the ecological transition, which must be fair and affordable, while respecting the imperative to reduce the deficit, with the aim of falling below the 3% of GDP mark by 2027, in accordance with the European treaties.
Beyond the rules imposed by the EU and the desire to reassure its neighbours, the executive must also deal with the verdict of the rating agencies, whose next decisions will fall in the fall.
We must return to a strong budgetary orthodoxy and say that each euro spent is an effective euro for the French, pleaded Sylvain Maillard, while the government has also promised not to increase taxes.
