(en) France, Alternative Libertaire AL #225 - State Reform: New semantic same logic (fr)

Promise Kept: Revision Policy (RGPP) the right, it's over. Instead, the modernization of 
public action (Map) must " improve the quality of public services in a more constrained . 
" In other words, do more with less. The difference with RGPP? The name change especially. 
---- The government's fiscal policy Ayrault supports the business, and the note is salty, 
twenty billion on behalf of the tax credit community employment. Will be paid by the 
working classes. In addition to an increase in VAT (from 19.6 to 20.0% for the standard 
rate) which had not been proposed by Holland during the presidential campaign, it is sixty 
billion economy that will Map allow to carry out all of the quinquennium. While the 
principle of non-replacement of an official two was abandoned.

It remains that each department was invited last December 19 to prepare audits (forty 
public policies will be evaluated in 2013) that warrant future cuts. As at the time of the 
RGPP.

The plane is made for planing
" We must combine savings and efficiency. If you say plane say efficiency, indeed our 
country will not be in a good position , "said on Europe 1 Marylise Lebranchu, Minister 
of State Reform and Public Administration. The austerity and competitiveness as registers 
(less political than accountants) of public action supporting the pretext of budgetary 
savings. They are ideologically consistent with the transfer of government debt and 
payment by local authorities (in the form of block grants payment diminished functioning) 
and more generally by the workers. Specifically, it will reorganizations and mergers of 
services. They will necessarily result, job losses and use of non-holders in the public, 
undermining the status will increase while the public-private partnerships.

The plane on the government to end the Map will be completed accordingly at its other end 
by a plane on the service actually rendered to the population, still less egalitarian. In 
the wake of Welsh report [ 1 ], the decline of public policy reflects the new role for the 
State in the context of neoliberal domination. It is to divert an ever greater social 
wealth in favor of the lucrative pension and global finance. That is why the department 
planned march in Seine-Saint-Denis on 17 January and the national day of action on 31 
January for the public represent a minimum two important steps to reverse the balance of 
power.
