A decree to help restaurateurs to restart their activity. Temporarily relaxed conditions of use will allow meal vouchers to be used even on Sundays and public holidays, for a doubled daily amount, which increases to 38 euros.
Published in the Official Journal on Thursday, the decree specifies that these new terms, in force until December 31, aim to "respond to the economic difficulties" of traditional restaurants, self-services, brasseries or hotel-restaurants, "resulting from their closure during the state of health emergency ”linked to the Covid-19 epidemic.
1.5 billion euros of unused payment vouchers during confinement
Announced by the Prime Minister at the end of the interministerial tourism committee of May 14, this measure should allow some 4.4 million employees to "spare" the equivalent of 1.5 billion euros of payment vouchers unused during the confinement.
This "will encourage the French to use their restaurant vouchers in restaurants at weekends with their families, I think it is a way of providing very concrete support to restaurateurs", declared the Minister for the Economy, Bruno Le Mayor, this Thursday on LCI. “If this weekend especially, you want to go to a restaurant and you want to pay your restaurant with your restaurant ticket, you can do it. Do it, it will help the restaurateurs, ”he insisted.
