On Europe 1, Monday evening, Secretary General SCPN-Unsa reacts to the forthcoming establishment of a parliamentary delegation on the control of law enforcement.

David Le Bars expresses his fears about the fallout from what he calls "Beauvau's most sensitive subject of security".

INTERVIEW

While the trial of Alexandre Benalla opened on Monday, the Élysée announced the creation of an IGPN control body. An "independent control" of "the action of the police", in response to the recurring criticisms which target the IGPN, nicknamed "the police force". For David Le Bars, this is a delicate measure. "It is undoubtedly the most sensitive subject of Beauvau of the security", estimates Monday in

Punchline 

the unionist of the SCPN-Unsa with Laurence Ferrari. "I have no qualms about the idea that there is an external observation on the administrative side of the IGPN. I am one of those who think that we have not been good in the battle of speech. "

David Le Bars pleads for an extension of the measure to the gendarmes.

"There is a need for parallelism of forms. There are two inspections within the Ministry of the Interior. Be careful that there is not an imbalance so as not to give a signal to those who hate the police , to say 'you see, it is the police who are not doing well'. That is wrong. That would be a negative signal in terms of communication. "

Mobilized deputies and senators

The terms of this "independent control" have not been specified.

According to information from Europe 1, it is deputies and senators who will constitute a new entity, like the already existing parliamentary intelligence delegation.

IGPN, the "font of fonts", would not be removed.

The idea would be to entrust cases where there is suspicion of excessive use of force to these parliamentarians.

And unlike a commission of inquiry such as it may already exist on a temporary basis, Members of Parliament and Senators would specialize on these issues on a permanent basis.

They will be able to access, for example, the files of administrative proceedings against a police officer, while having a certain duty of reserve not to disclose anything.
