Measures to combat violence against elected officials
At the end of the city councilor’s meeting with Élisabeth Borne, Dominique Faure, Minister Delegate in charge of Territorial Communities and Rurality, is to announce the establishment of the “centre for analysis and the fight against violence against elected”, had indicated the entourage of Elisabeth Borne to franceinfo. If the creation of this structure was announced in mid-March, the date of its launch was not yet known. It was unveiled after the resignation of the mayor of Saint-Brevin-les-Pins, after the arson of his home, in connection with the highly contested move project of a reception center for asylum seekers.
This “center for analysis and the fight against violence against elected officials” should make it possible to better support them when they are victims of violence.
