Another sequence that will not help Yaël Braun-Pivet ‘relations with the executive. Tuesday, June 3, during questions to the government, the macronist president of the Assembly had bleeding exchanges with the minister LR of health, Yannick Neuder, the two accusing too much to register on the agenda a text on the creation of a register of cancers (to remedy very fragmented statistics on the subject), as LCP has noted.

First skirmish when the minister slipped a little from nowhere, in response to a question from the eco -friendly deputy Julie Ozenne: « I remind the president of the Assembly and the group presidents that the senator (centrist) Sonia de la Provôté has tabled a bill (PPL, editor’s note) in this sense. (…) I invite you to register on the agenda of your work the examination of (this) PPL. ” Braun-Pivet’s dry response: « You call for the presidency of the Assembly, but I remind you that the government fixes half the agenda of our debates. »

But that did not prevent Neuder from come back A few minutes later, after the public center deputy Aurélien Rousseau has publicly revealedin the hemicycle, being suffering from cancer and also demanded the implementation of a register: « Forgive me, the president, I am not trying to fuel a sterile controversy between the Parliament and the government, but it seems to me that all the groups are favorable to the registration on the agenda of the bill aimed at creating such a register. (…) The Senate wishes a national cancer register, the PPL on the subject having been voted unanimously. We can therefore register it on the transpartisan agenda of this assembly, as quickly as possible, as soon as we have the opportunity. ”

New response, this time slightly Furax, from Braun-Pivet to the Minister: « Regarding your wish to register this text as quickly as possible on the agenda, Minister, know that the next week of the Assembly – during which the latter will fix its agenda – is scheduled for December 2025! If you want to go fast, it is up to the government to put this text on the agenda! ”
