Overview

• François Bayrou has published a dossier on Bayrou.fr containing documents from his May 14 parliamentary hearing regarding the Notre-Dame-de-Bétharram abuse scandal.
• The documents aim to refute six key accusations, including claims that Bayrou lied, interfered with justice in the 1990s, or benefited from privileged information.
• Bayrou maintains his innocence, calling the allegations defamatory and accusing opponents, particularly France Insoumise, of politicizing the scandal.
• The website's launch faced technical issues on May 23 but is now fully operational as of May 24, providing access to the promised materials.
• The parliamentary inquiry continues to investigate state oversight and prevention of violence in schools, as over 200 former students allege decades of abuse at the Catholic institution.
