“Tomorrow any person taking part in a violent gathering during which damage is committed may be required to make a civil contribution to their repair. A simple principle: when we participate in collective violence, we must individually assume the consequences,” he explains.
“This contribution can be adapted to the financial capacities of each person, including in the form of modest payments spread over time. Social benefits may also be requested under the conditions provided for by law, without calling into question the remaining life of the people concerned,” specifies the head of government, emphasizing the “educational vocation” of such reparation.
