More than 10,000 civil servant positions created

We must first retain growth, estimated at 1% in 2023. This is what the budget is based on.

The figure is disputed by several institutes, including the OECD, which rather expect growth of 0.6%.

But the government wants to be confident.

The flagship measure of this finance bill is the tariff shield: 45 billion euros to contain the rise in the price of gas and electricity to 15% and protect the purchasing power of the French.

This 2023 finance bill also provides for the creation of 10,764 civil servant posts, most of them for the Ministry of the Interior but Justice and the armies will also benefit from it.

And then there is an important component for employment and businesses: 3.5 billion euros for apprenticeship, 84 million euros to support long-term job seekers and the elimination of a first half of the VAT to them in production taxes.

4 billion euros less tax for companies.
