The High Commissioner for Pensions, Jean-Paul Delevoye, presented his resignation Monday to the President of the Republic, who accepted it "with regret", after a week of revelations on his undeclared activities and mandates, admitting "a lightness guilty".
Appointed by Emmanuel Macron in September 2017 to prepare the pension reform, Mr. Delevoye considers that "confidence is weakened under the blows of violent attacks and untrue amalgams" and that through his "trial", we "want undermine the project "which he considers" essential for France ", he explains in a statement sent to AFP. He will be replaced "as soon as possible," said the Elysée.
