Anti squats
Macronist deputy Guillaume Kasbarian's bill, aimed at better protecting landlords against squatters and unpaid rent, should be voted on with some modifications, at first reading, on Tuesday by the right-wing senatorial majority, which has already proposed in the past anti-squat provisions.
One of the emblematic measures triples the penalties incurred by squatters, up to three years in prison and a fine of 45.000 euros.
Included on the agenda at the request of the RDPI group (Rally of Democrats, Progressives and Independents) with a Renaissance majority, the text was reworked in committee, "without distorting it", in particular so as to "clearly distinguish the situation from squatter from that of the tenant".
But as in the National Assembly, he will come up against strong opposition on the left in the hemicycle, which will relay the concern of associations always mobilized against the risk of expulsion of the most fragile.
Agricultural pensions
This is the only text that should be adopted definitively. This is an LR bill passed unanimously in early December by the National Assembly to raise the pensions of self-employed farmers. In particular the heads of operations and collaborating spouses.
The text was adopted without modifications by the senators in committee. The same vote in the hemicycle, Tuesday or Wednesday, will be worth final adoption.
On this consensual subject of revaluation of agricultural pensions, two laws called Chassaigne 1 and 2 had already been passed unanimously in 2020 and 2021.
Savers
The bill presented Tuesday in the hemicycle by the general rapporteur for the Budget Jean-François Husson (LR) and his predecessor Albéric de Montgolfier (LR) aims to "strengthen the protection of savers".
It aims in particular to improve their information to enable them to "make a more informed choice" and provides for stricter supervision of certain commissions. Several measures "increase the control of players in the savings market".
Among the other measures, an article extends until 2026 the benefit of the tax incentive put in place by the Pacte law to transfer the sums invested in a life insurance contract to a retirement savings plan (PER).
