That offers the report Sirugue to simplify social minima – Challenges.fr

PS Christophe Sirugue MP favors the creation of a “common base cover” to replace the ten existing minimum social benefits, which would be accessible to young people under 25 years, in a report to be remitted to Monday, April 18 Manuel Valls and which AFP has learned. Its proposals aim to simplify the social minimum, make them more equitable and to enhance the effectiveness of integration policies.

In this context, Christophe Sirugue place at the heart of his thinking “the issue of youth access to welfare benefits, including that of access for 18-25 years at RSA. ” “Depriving the vast majority of young people access to our universal device of fight against poverty seems more acceptable effect,” he said.

“This age requirement appears very strange in view of the situation of our European neighbors and, especially, it prevents effectively fight against younger poverty, the increase since 2008 is unfortunately striking, “he added, saying that” the structural effects such a reform should be well anticipated “.

” thorough overhaul “

Among” three scenarios “possible, the rapporteur therefore prefers that of” an overhaul of overall architecture of the system of social minima “, with the creation of a” common base cover “that would treat” all users (…) by the same rules when resources are lacking, while enjoying a complementary device that also meets their specific characteristics “.

This kind of minimum subsistence, would be” supplemented by an additional insertion + + allows any assets of more than 18 years to benefit from an ad hoc assistance as well as support + + complement to preserve resources for people with disabilities and the elderly, “the report said.

in this” ambitious scenario “which” will take time to be realized “, the common base would replace the cover ten minima currently enjoyed four million recipients: the active solidarity income (RSA), the solidarity allowance for the elderly (ASPA), allocation disabled adults (AAH), the additional disability allowance (ASI), specific solidarity allowance (ASS), the widowhood allowance (AV), the overseas solidarity income (RSO), the transitional premium solidarity (PTS), solidarity income overseas (RSO), the temporary waiting allowance (ATA) and the allowance for asylum seeker (ADA).

“Strengthen fairness of the system “

another scenario proposes the implementation, from 1 January 2017, twelve of social minima simplification measures to facilitate users’ access to their rights, for example by making “predictable amounts paid to recipients of the RSA”.

These measures would help “strengthen the fairness of the system, aligning the incentive systems of SSA and RSA or ending some possibilities of combining different devices together, “according to the rapporteur. It also proposes measures for the disabled, in particular to ensure equal treatment of applications for AAH on the whole territory

Another scenario. Halving the number of devices existing, passing ten social minimum five in 2020. at RSA, would be integrated the widowhood allowance, the ATA and the RSO, consolidating the RSA “in his role as base of last resort.” It also recommends limiting the duration of the specific solidarity allowance to two years.

The report is the result of work begun in December by the MP in consultation with associations, communities, administrations State and operators.
