Dependency: the government asked to do more despite the increase in budgets

Pressed to act in the face of the aging of the population, the government promises to invest in favor of the elderly, within the framework of the social security financing bill (PLFSS) for 2023 presented on Monday. But the promised measures leave the actors of the accompaniment of the seniors and the parliamentarians on their hunger.

The draft budget is “an ambitious text in a context of constrained public finances”, defended the Minister of Solidarity, Jean-Christophe Combe, in the Assembly on Monday evening. In fact, spending on institutions and services for the elderly is to increase by more than 5% next year.
