Examination of the activity report was an opportunity to present the feedback from the survey proposed to members, and to outline the most significant focal points and issues: renovation and adaptation of housing to ageing, access to rights and services, conditions for exercising social ties, mobility and access to care. The analysis of the open part of the survey “What is a municipality where life is good?” also contributed to defining a dynamic and demanding platform, validated by the assembly and which will feed into the roadmap for the next financial year.
Maurice Melchior, Secretary General of the Territorial Union of Retired Persons, placed the debates in the perspective of the union’s actions and demands, against “a backdrop of the government’s abandonment of the commitment to a “Grand Age” law, and this despite the emergencies: fight against medical deserts, purchasing power, impacts of the energy transition, debate on the end of life…”
Mélanie Blandin, secretary general of the interprofessional territorial union, spoke about trade union news, in particular “the large-scale inter-union mobilization against the pension bill”, as well as the place of retirees in the life of the union.
The renewal of the union council and the adoption of the orientation report testified to a local union united around shared values and the desire to assert itself on the territory “as a player that counts, serving the expectations of members. “.
