She decided.

This Tuesday, High Authority for the Transparency of Public Life (HATVP) "notes the absence of breach" in the statements of Agnès Pannier-Runacher

The HATVP had opened an investigation seven days ago into the Minister of Energy Transition Agnès Pannier-Runacher, after information from Disclose revealing that her children held shares in a company whose funds are partly domiciled in tax havens.

“False and slanderous allegations”

According to the investigative media Disclose, the minister's children are partners in this French company, not mentioned on the minister's declaration of interests.

The High Authority, which collects the declarations of interests and activities of the ministers, also has the role of scrutinizing the possible risks of conflicts of interest of the ministers, and the means of remedying them.

The minister denounced Tuesday to the Assembly "false and slanderous allegations", ensuring that this subject had "no connection with (his) functions as minister".

"No [obligation] to declare this structure"

“So there is nothing hidden, nothing hidden”, she insisted, explaining that the operations concerned had been carried out by “through a French company”.

Agnès Pannier-Runacher affirms that she does not have "to declare this structure", since the law obliges her to declare her direct participations and those of her spouse, but not those of her children, which the HATVP confirmed. .
