Summary
The 5th of Art I. LO. 111-3 of the Social Security Code states that the Social Security Funding Act sets out annually, for each of the mandatory basic plans with more than 20,000 active or retired contributors with own rights or organizations whose mission is to contribute to their financing, the limits in which their cash requirements can be covered by non-permanent resources. However, art. LO. 111-5 of the said Code states that in the event of an emergency, these limits may be raised by decree. Section 68 of the Social Security Financing Act for 2003 (2002-1487 of 20-12-2002) set the limit for the general system to 12.5 billion euros. However, as shown by the Social Security Accounts Commission in May 2003, the deficit of the General Plan will be more than 4 billion euros than that expected in the vote of the Financing Act. Regularly updated estimates suggest that since July 2003 the need for cash from the central social security agency at the end of 2003 should be higher than the initial forecast of several billion euros. In the face of this situation, the measures the Government intends to take to improve the cash position of the general plan by the end of the year will only limit the extent of these exceedances. It is therefore necessary to increase the borrowing ceiling of the general plan, which the Government proposes to set at 15 billion euros. In accordance with art. LO. 111-5 of the above-mentioned code, the ratification of this decree will be requested by Parliament in the Social Security Financing Bill for 2004. In addition, under art. L. 111-10, the Government will submit to Parliament, within 15 days of its publication, a report presenting the reasons for raising the ceiling and justifying the urgency that requires the use of the regulatory path.
