Dominique Estrosi-Sassone, rapporteur on the renovation part, pleaded for greater legibility of the law, a clear and ambitious definition of efficient renovation, for broad access to renovation aid, free support, deductibility of works for lessors and portability of works funds between successive co-owners.
Regarding the fight against the artificialization of soils, Jean-Baptiste Blanc, rapporteur on the artificialization of soils part, warned of the centralizing and coercive approach adopted by the Government, while the citizens' convention favored a level of proximity . He regretted the application of a uniform objective of - 50% of the pace of artificialization, giving a "premium to the less virtuous" and penalizing rural territories.

According to Sophie Primas, president of the Committee on Economic Affairs, “We must not neglect the question of the acceptability of the measures taken to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. This forces us to think about all the possible consequences of these measures, to take the time to involve all the stakeholders from the drafting phase of the law. This time is necessary because the ecological transition will be done in an inclusive and gradual way or it will not happen ”.
