Edouard Philippe, November 15, 2017 at the National Assembly. - Martin BUREAU / AFP

The pension reform will pass to the National Assembly from February 17. The examination of this controversial bill by the deputies should last two weeks, in accelerated procedure.

The reform project, which includes an organic bill and an ordinary bill, will be presented to the Council of Ministers on January 24. These texts must then pass before a special commission in the National Assembly, following the request made Tuesday by the leader of the deputies LREM Gilles Le Gendre.

A first reading in early March

This calendar, in committee and then in the hemicycle, should allow adoption at first reading in early March. Then the reform project will pass to the Senate. After more than a month of strike against this reform, the government opens a new round of consultations on Tuesday.

Prime Minister Edouard Philippe said he was "open to discussions on many subjects", including that of the "financing conference" proposed by number one of the CFDT Laurent Berger. Laurent Berger reaffirmed Tuesday, upon his arrival at the multilateral meeting at the Ministry of Labor, that "it was (first) that the pivotal age be removed from the bill" on pensions to hope an end to the conflict social.
