All eyes will be on him: the Constitutional Council will make its decisions on pension reform on Friday. But whatever the decisions of the Elders, the government will be caught up in the parliamentary calendar.

The Constitutional Council will make its decisions on the pension reform on Friday. Three scenarios are on the table, from the probable rejection of certain measures to complete censorship, via a first step towards a referendum. Only the government could well be caught up in the parliamentary calendar.
Several very important texts are indeed waiting to pass before the National Assembly for a first examination: the military programming law or the law on immigration. Except that the agenda of parliamentarians is saturated. A true mission impossible.
Choose priority texts
Before the start of the parliamentary recess at the end of June, the government must, in theory, pass the military programming law that the Minister for the Armed Forces, Sébastien Lecornu, hopes to promulgate on July 14. Other laws on customs, full employment, restitution of cultural property, justice, the judiciary, energy or the climate are also on the program.
Not to mention the immigration law which has just been postponed, and even less the reform of institutions which is no longer the priority of the moment, as explained by the secretary general of the Elysée, Alexis Kohler in a small committee at Renaissance deputies. A secretary general who must now choose with the president the priority texts before the summer, in a context of parliamentary crisis.
