The minimum retirement age will he be down ? No, repeated Thursday evening, Jean-Paul Delevoye. Or so without him.
The vocals and the calm tone, but the message is clear and firm. For his first public speech since the burst of the controversy over the retirement age, the high commissioner, the reform did not go by four paths: “A cap has been released on 10 October (with the promise that the minimum age of departure will remain at age 62, ed) , recalled Jean-Paul Delevoye Thursday at the closing session of a symposium organized by the Senate. I am a man of commitments […] and these commitments cannot be challenged, otherwise I also have to take the consequences”.
Should we understand that in the face of the dilly-dallying of the government, it would have threatened to pull out of the preparation of this project to be daunting ? No, “it speaks to the future,” says his entourage.
“Letting the dust”
Jean-Paul Delevoye, who is Emmanuel Macron has been entrusted with the delicate mission of designing the future universal system of retirement, played by following the map of the serenity. “When there’s media storm, let fall the dust, we continue on our path of way alone,” he qualified, from the top of his 45-year political career. “The episode is behind us,” adds his team.

Yet, in the scenes of the reform, the tranquility is no longer relevant since that Agnès Buzyn, minister of supervision of the high commissioner, said Sunday that as staff she was “not hostile” to retirement at age 65. During the presidential campaign, Emmanuel Macron had promised not to touch the legal age of departure.
The minister of Health and Solidarity may well have assured on Tuesday that”no changes to the minimum age of retirement” was “envisaged”, the controversy does not turn off. The “proposal” of Agnès Buzyn “is studied, to look at”, said the minister of the Action and of the public Accounts Gérald Darmanin, on Tuesday on LCI, calling it “courageous.” Wednesday, it was the turn of the spokesperson of the government of Benjamin Griveaux to say that the question was “in dialogue”. On the same day, Prime minister Edward Philip assured him that “in the framework of this reform, there[was] no question of changing the starting age.”
“Why would it be in retirement to finance the addiction ?”
If it does not move in the framework of this reform, the legal age might evolve in the context of another site, that of dependency ? The question arises now. The introduction into the debate by Édouard Philippe and Agnès Buzyn of the thorny question of the financing of the loss of autonomy who have still blurred the tracks. To the extent that a blur is maintained in the different discourses around the notions of”minimum age”,”age start” and”lengthening of the duration of work.”
the Results, if they have paid tribute to the method of consultation of Jean-Paul Delevoye, and have reiterated their confidence, the social partners, who expressed themselves in turn to the Senate Thursday on the reform, are all or almost all so-called “in the fog”.
“I’m not sure to have understood everything,” said Serge Lavagna, of the CFE-CGC. The decline of the age of departure “will not be in the act of retirement, but in the act of dependence ? I fall a little bare. This is all very confusing”. “I listened to Mr. Delevoye, I feel I have understood it, but I’ll wait until tomorrow to see if there are other reactions !” quips Dominique Corona (Unsa). “All this is incomprehensible, it is necessary to stop play. Why would it be in retirement to finance the addiction ? There must be a mode of self-financing, sanctuarisé.”
Consultations until mid-may
“Nothing is clear”, is concerned about Frédéric Sap (CFDT), and “it is up to the government to clarify the things: the last days I was not especially reassured. The discussion with Jean-Paul Delevoye was of excellent quality, it would be a shame manoeuvres destroy that trust.” What he expects now ? “The government says clearly that there will not be two laws” pension – reform straightening up the pension system without touching the retirement age and another focused on the dependence which will decline to minimum age.
“The method [of Jean-Paul Delevoye] is good, greet Philippe Pihet, including the trade union, Force ouvrière (FO), however, is fiercely opposed to a system of pension points. Our suspicion, which is not vis-à-vis the high commissioner but of the government. It is a pity that he criticizes this method, especially towards the end…”
