Government spokesman Gabriel Attal did not rule out on Tuesday that candidate Emmanuel Macron proposes to condition the RSA to a minimum of activity.

To do this, he would refer to a logic of “rights, duties”.

The “Youth Commitment Contract”

“The logic we carry is that of saying that duties open up rights, and not the other way around.

It is not the rights that open the duties”, he explained on France 2. He recalled that this logic underpinned since March 1 the device of “Youth engagement contract” which provides for support for young people in financial difficulties "provided they complete a certain number of hours of training".

Donated to 1.91 million households

The active solidarity income (RSA) provides people without resources with a minimum level of income that varies according to the composition of the household.

The RSA is open, under certain conditions, to people aged at least 25, as well as to young workers aged 18 to 24 if they are single parents or have a certain period of professional activity.

At the end of September 2021, the number of RSA beneficiaries was estimated at 1.91 million households.

The total amount committed was nearly 2.90 billion euros in the third quarter of 2021, continuing the decrease that began at the end of 2020, according to the National Family Allowance Fund.
