“Law of extension of the health pass rejected yesterday on 10/19/2021.

This is the comment that appears on a TikTok seen over 600,000 times as of this writing.

The video captures a few seconds of debate in the National Assembly.

The chairman, David Habib, announces the results of a vote: “254 voters.

For: 101. Against: 153. The motion to reject it was dismissed.

"

A post published against the backdrop of debates in the National Assembly on the extension of the QR code until July 2022 depending on the evolution of the epidemic situation.

This bill is controversial, both among elected officials and among citizens opposed to the health pass.

In the comments of this video, several Internet users cry victory, while another is more skeptical: “We know them, even if it is rejected, they will continue until it passes.

"

FAKE OFF

The author of this TikTok probably did not pay enough attention to parliamentary debates before sharing his video.

The excerpt published concerns the session of Tuesday, October 19, during which the deputies examined the "preliminary rejection motion" filed by the elected LR Damien Abad, as indicated on the website of the National Assembly.

The preliminary rejection motion, sometimes tabled by elected opposition officials, aims, as its name suggests, to rule out a text even before its examination, as the National Assembly points out on its website.

If it is adopted, it entails the rejection of the text concerned.

During the afternoon of debates, Philippe Gosselin, deputy LR, defended the motion, considering that the bill was "contrary to the rule of law": "For months, we have been in a form of trivialization of this state of emergency.

"

The vote of the deputies against the motion of rejection, as the chairman of the session announced in the viral video, therefore means that the examination of the extension of the health pass has continued as planned.

The “health vigilance” bill was also validated by the National Assembly on Wednesday evening.

Among the main points of contention, the famous article 2, which allows the government to extend the health pass until the end of July 2022, if the health situation requires it.

A measure narrowly adopted, after two days of debate, with 74 votes against 73. The text will be examined in the Senate from October 28.
