Universal national service could be tested "in 2019," said Secretary of State to the Minister of the Armed Forces, Geneviève Darrieussecq.
Emmanuel Macron, who had made this month-long national service a campaign promise, had announced the creation of a commission on July 14, without detailing the calendar.
The work of a commission
"Since then, there have been technical meetings, requests to administrations to take stock of the actions already put in place for youth," said Geneviève Darrieussecq, on the sidelines of the back-to-school university of MoDem in Guidel (Morbihan ).
“The high-level commission will take charge of this file. We have made proposals to the Prime Minister who should appoint her in October, "she added, adding that the spirit was to include" all the representatives of the ministries concerned, youth leaders, parliamentarians , qualified people ”.
An experimental phase
"The idea is that the Commission can submit its recommendations to spring 2018. Then, there could be an experimental phase in 2019, this is what is desired by the President of the Republic and the Prime Minister", said continued the secretary of state.
During the campaign, Emmanuel Macron had anticipated a bill in late 2017, citing a cost of between 2 and 3 billion euros "at cruising speed", and promising that the budget of the Armed Forces would not be punctuated._AF
