USPA NEWS - Here is the remainder of the integrity of the general policy discourse of the French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe on 4 July before the 577 deputies and ministers at the General Assembly.--------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Ladies and gentlemen, France can return with confidence, it has, I am certain, the means, it has, I am convinced, envy, it must also have the courage, the Courage, this is the second major axis that organizes the work of the government. Let us be clear that this is not the courage of the government, the majority or the Parliament, but the courage we must collectively show ourselves in order to live up to the stakes. The French are brave, they have been facing terrorism, not only the police, gendarmes, soldiers or customs officers who fight against this threat and who are all too often the targets of all Frenchmen. Faced with the danger they did not want to change their habits, let alone renounce their values. There is a form of calm but real courage in our country that we can be proud of.“ Prime Minister Edouard Philippe Said

The threat is everywhere, diffuse, not a month passes without projects being stolen or acts prevented. Let us have at this moment a thought for the victims, more than 200 killed on our soil, hundreds of wounded, for their loved ones who must learn to live with pain, with pain and with absence. I want to pay tribute to all those we see, policemen, gendarmes, soldiers of Operation Sentinelle, watching over our security every day, those who fight in the theaters of external operations, in the Sahel or in the Levant, That we do not see and that we will never know, our soldiers of the shadow of which we can be proud, many have fallen to the service of our freedom.“ A MILITARY PLAN WILL BE ADOPTED BY 2018 I want to tell all of them that we will give them the means to defend ourselves, as the President of the Republic has promised, a military planning law will be adopted by 2018, it will increase spending to 2% of GDP d 'Here 2025 and will enable France to fight on all fronts. But I want to tell you plainly, there will be other attacks, other dramas, other innocent lives mown, we will never get used to them and we will not lower guard, like the French We will face this threat with calm and cold determination. We will fight terrorism with extreme harshness without denying what we are, the rule of law and, moreover, the French Republic.“ FRANCE TO LEAVE EMERGENCY STATE IN NEXT NOVEMBER A Republic, ladies and gentlemen, who can not live in a state of permanent emergency, that is why the President of the Republic has asked us to prepare the exit of the state of emergency by the 1st November with a bill to strengthen the effectiveness of our legislative arsenal against terrorism under the rigorous control of the judge. At the same time, the Minister of the Interior and the Keeper of the Seals will work together to reduce insecurity. In the spring of 2018, after experiments, they will jointly carry out a reform project based on simplified procedures so that the security forces are freed from administrative complexity, establish a genuine security police on a daily basis, it is also a condition to re-establish trust. Courage is also to face the migratory challenge, the pressure exerted at the borders in the Alpes-Maritimes, Calais, Mayotte and Guyana, which is also at the heart of the national territory As in Paris, creates considerable tensions and dangers for public order. This pressure will not diminish, conflict and economic insecurity in the Middle East and Africa, climate risks, prosper by exploiting misery and misery, everything contributes to fueling it. Faced with this situation, France has proved unable to fulfill its legal or moral obligations. Asylum seekers who are effectively covered by the Geneva Convention are awaiting the granting of a statute for many months and under conditions that are sometimes shameful , The others who are actually economic migrants are rarely far away when they are rejected. Next week, the government will present measures that will meet three requirements: a dignity requirement for France to honor its tradition of receiving refugees, a requirement for efficiency to reduce the average time taken to investigate asylum applications From 14 to 6 months and to obtain the effective removal of asylum-seekers, a requirement of solidarity and responsibility, with our European partners, we will bring about the reform of the European asylum system and will take action towards Country of origin and transit. As I said a few days ago to the prefects, I met with the Minister of State, Minister of the Interior, to see the world as it is, It is without renouncing what we are. Welcome, yes, of course, help, yes, obviously, undergo, no, never. Courage is also to face things and prepare for the future, let's talk about the school. I am by my personal history a pure product of public school, twice teachers, I owe much of what I am to my masters, to their attention, to their perseverance and their ability to inspire me . We all know the dedication of teachers, the passion that drives them and the role they play for our children. And yet, and yet all the studies show, we form very good ones very well but we dig the inequalities and the average level of our students is not in the measure of our great country. Our system leaves nearly 100,000 unqualified young people every year, we spend much less than our neighbors in the primary school where everything is played, we spend much more than other countries for high school because our system is rigid and designed Around the baccalauréat. But we are driving 60%, ladies and gentlemen, from bachelors to bachelor's degree. Finally, absolute scandal, absolute scandal, some of the most deserving bachelors are excluded by drawing lots of the university courses they have chosen. Where is equality? Where is the merit? Where is the Republic? We can no longer accept. THE BACCALAURÉAT WILL BE REFORMED IN 2018 AND FULLY BY 2021--------------------------------------------------- I will not go over the measures already announced by the Minister of Education for the school and the college. They focus on the acquisition of basic knowledge, support for pupils and the autonomy of schools and will be Force from the beginning of next school year. As for the baccalauréat, we will make it profoundly evolve, a consultation will be launched as of next coming to tighten the final tests around a small number of subjects and define what is under continuous control. We will reach before September 2018 for a full implementation of this reform for the bac 2021. Our ambition is also strong for the professional sector, the link between the vocational college and the business world through alternation or apprenticeship must be tightened. The vocational lycée must also be better integrated with the short post-baccalaure courses such as BTS and professional licenses. Qualifying diplomas for bac + 1 may also be offered after the professional baccalaureate.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our great universities must also continue to be transformed with the support of research organizations, they must continue to gain autonomy, to work in networks and to come closer to the economic world. It is in their laboratories that the collective intelligence and the economic growth of tomorrow are built. Investment efforts will not be relaxed, we need strong universities, or training, research and innovation will irrigate our culture and our economy. Our universities will experience a shock which we must all rejoice but which is not neutral, each year we have 40,000 additional students that we will have to welcome but we have no right to direct entire generations into inadequate and unfit training. It is time to offer our high school students contracts of student success that indicate the prerequisites to succeed in the course targeted, we will do it from the beginning of 2018. We must also guarantee a real right to return to the university all Throughout his career to complete and validate the experience acquired in an academic environment. Our youth is thirsty, we will not respond by growth rates or by procedures, the youth wants to rise, in the last century it has had too many opportunities to shed its blood. The front today is social, environmental and global, it calls the mobilization of youth not to fight but to build, share, pour the fruit of his knowledge and his enthusiasm. It is also to prepare our children to this world that comes, to this France that we want great and beautiful, just and strong that the government will set up a new national service in accordance with the commitments of the President of the Republic. The reflection on the forms it will take will be conducted before the end of 2017.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The courage is also to renovate our social model. We are in our country strongly and legitimately attached to equality, equality before the law, equality of rights. Yet today we feel that this equality is badly dealt with, the labor code is the same for everyone, but the level of protection is not the same in large groups, in SMEs, or in the case of those who accumulate fixed-term contracts. And we also know that everyone aspires to freedom of choice, freedom to choose one's professional career, to change jobs, freedom to create, freedom of enterprise, freedom to reconcile one's professional life and one's personal life.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The traditional categories that have structured our social life are crumbling. Boundary between wage and self-employment, role of law and contract, distribution of value. All this is profoundly shattered by the combined impact of globalization and the digital revolution. That is why we want to revamp our social model so that it creates truly effective protections instead of just guaranteeing them on paper. So that it accompanies the one who wants to take a risk, instead of being only turned towards the one that is already installed.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As early as June 6th, I defined with the Minister of Labor and we shared with the social partners the road map for this social renovation. It focuses on four points: Strengthening social dialogue in the company and in the branches, restoring purchasing power to assets, securing career paths, making our pension system more accurate and legible.-------------------------------------- We want to move quickly, because the social emergency is strong. But we are advancing without haste. We are still in the period of consultation with the social partners. This week will begin the parliamentary debate with the examination of the enabling bill for the strengthening of social dialogue. At the end of the summer, the time will come when the orders will be published. As early as October, we will start work on strengthening vocational training, opening up unemployment insurance to resigners and self-employed workers and redesigning apprenticeships. Here too, we will have real discussions with the social partners and we will present a bill and an action plan in spring 2018.------------------------------------------------------------- We will apply the same method to the renovation of our pension system to make it fairer and more transparent, so that a contributed euro opens the same rights for all. We take time for diagnosis, consultation and negotiation and we will set the framework for the reform at the end of 2018.“ Prime Minister declared See the rest of the statement on the following article.
