Overview
- Parliament’s finance committees convene Monday and Tuesday to hear Economy Minister Roland Lescure and Public Accounts Minister Amélie de Montchalin on the emergency text ahead of rapid floor votes.
- The limited measure extends current taxes, authorizes borrowing, and opens only the minimum credits needed to pay civil servants, ensure vital security, and meet debt obligations on the basis of 2025 appropriations.
- Amélie de Montchalin says the government aims to secure a full 2026 budget by the end of January, indicating there could be some targeted tax increases as part of a compromise.
- Housing Minister Vincent Jeanbrun confirms the MaPrimeRénov’ grant portal will be suspended from January 1, with broader non‑essential spending and investment frozen until a budget is adopted.
- Debate continues over potential use of article 49.3 or even ordinances to pass a budget, and the National Rally signaled it would back the stopgap to keep the state functioning.
