"We are not voting on a subsidy to an association of a neighborhood committee," said Damien Abad on Europe 1, who would like there to be "an informed vote" on the subject of deconfinement.

"This is an extremely serious subject, extremely serious. It may be necessary to allow parliamentarians 24 or 48 hours to have time to reflect and cast a solid vote," he insisted, seeing it as a "good way to reconcile urgency and democratic life ".

He joins in this sense the boss of the Republicans Christian Jacob who wanted Sunday that there is "a real debate in Parliament, worthy of the name" with beforehand "a real work in committee".
