Exemption from payment in the school canteens

As from the Monday, January 8, 2007, the Community decided the exemption from payment meals in the school canteens of the elementary schools. This decision is a first in France. On the initiative of Jean-Christophe Lagarde, measurement, of social inspiration in a underprivileged sector of the Paris region, is also likely to fight against childish obesity.

The member of Parliament, asserting that schooling, therefore the recourse to the school canteens, is obligatory for the children from 6 to 16 years, intends to file in a bill aiming at extending measurement.

The economy of scale carried out by extending to the two communes the markets of the school canteens, as well as the removal of the overheads of the invoicing of the meals, should compensate for the overcost for the community and not generate tax increase.

The exemption from payment of the meals which should profit with 3000 pupils, accounts for 5% of the Community budget, that is to say 1,1 million euros, being recalled that, in a general way, the families seldom pay the complete cost price of the service (food, personnel and buildings), and that part of this cost is thus assumed by the local taxpayers.

The tariffs applied before were thus of 0,50 centimes to 3,22 euros with Drancy (73% of the families paid the maximum tariff) and of 0,90 centimes to 3,80 euros in Le Bourget.

This rate of 73% of the families paying the maximum tariff hitherto shows an inappropriate tariffing well former to the population of a city socially not very favoured. In addition, the decision of exemption from payment does not call into question the principles of operation of the service, where the children of Drancy can be registered only if their two parents work and have their correct documents whereas compulsory education concerns all the children.

The media library Georges Brassens, of 4000 m ², was inaugurated on April 28th, 2007. It cost 13 million euros, including 5,6 of subsidies.
