Proposition de loi renforçant les sanctions de l'occupation d'un logement par des squatteurs

This is an ordinary bill (proposition de loi) tabled in the French National Assembly during the 15th legislature. Its title indicates it would increase the sanctions applied when people occupy a dwelling without the owner's or tenant's permission, commonly known as squatting. The bill is a legislative proposal from members of parliament rather than from the government, and it would take effect only if adopted by both chambers and promulgated. Property owners and tenants who have lost use of their homes to squatters would be most directly affected, as would individuals accused of unlawful occupation. The exact penalties and procedures can only be confirmed by reading the full legislative text. This summary is based on metadata only.
