The arbitration has just been rendered in a high place. It is only companies and employees who will benefit from a boost in early April, to deal with cash flow problems after some two or three weeks of confinement and stopping a part of economic activity in France.
Social benefits (disabled adult allowance, personalized housing allowance, active solidarity income, etc.) distributed as national solidarity by the public authorities will be paid, not as they should have been on Monday, April 6, but three days ahead of schedule, Friday April 3.
This gesture represents a cash advance of 5 billion euros for the State. "Whatever it costs," said the President of the Republic during his first televised speech about the coronavirus crisis. Not a day has passed since the government did not announce a measure aimed at one of the audiences affected by the pandemic. The last sequence is clearly intended for the most precarious and those who benefit from national solidarity, such as the unemployed at the end of the right to unemployment insurance who will see their allowance extended by one month.
