The President of the Republic estimated last January that " effort and merit are not sufficiently recognized in France " A bill is being prepared to this effect. But it will still be necessary to convince the civil servant unions who, far from being coaxed by the communist's sweet words, are jumping on board with the new pay plan.
The bill is expected to be presented to the French parliament in the coming weeks. It is expected that the bill will be approved by the end of the year. It will be the first of its kind in the French public service.
