The president of the Renaissance deputies Aurore Bergé pleaded on Sunday to "hold" on a postponement of the legal retirement age from 62 to 65, as part of the future reform, the details of which are still under arbitration.

"What I want is that we no longer need to talk about a new pension reform each five-year term", declared Aurore Bergé on France 3. "So I think we have to hold on to the fact that it is necessary to go up to 65 years "which is" the solution so that we finally have a reform which is simple, fair, readable ", she insisted.

According to the elected representative of Yvelines, such a measure “only works if we have new rights”, that is to say by taking into account “the question of long careers, hardship, women (…), of the minimum pension.

“65 years old yes (…) but in social justice”, she summarized.

Emmanuel Macron had defended during the presidential campaign a postponement of the legal age from 62 to 65, before evoking once re-elected a decline to 64, coupled with an increase in the contribution period.

These points are currently the subject of consultation between the government and the social partners, and must be decided by December 15.

Opening left and right

A bill will then be presented in January, before a review in Parliament.

With a simple majority relative to the Assembly, will the executive be able to do without 49.3, which allows a text to be adopted without a vote?

“We will do everything for”, replied Aurore Bergé, who does not “want to assume, from now on, that it will be necessary”.

“To the left, which does not want us to make an agreement with the right, to help us move forward on issues of social justice.

And on the right to assume to vote it with us, since it is a reform that they considered necessary ”, further defended the leader of the Renaissance deputies.



For his part, President LR of the Senate Gérard Larcher insisted on "two very important points": "employment of seniors", with "investment plans in training" because "today we no longer invest after 50 or 55 years old”, as well as “recognition of long careers”.

"One of the interests of postponing the age, and we propose 64 years", is "to change policy for employees after 50 years", he insisted to the Grand Jury LCI-RTL-Le Figaro.
