Reconnaissance, étude et indemnisation des victimes du chlordécone et création d’un établissement public indépendant chargé de cette mission

Stage committeeUpdated 4mo ago

This legislative proposal aims to formally recognize and study the impact of chlordecone, a toxic pesticide, on victims. It proposes the creation of an independent public body to manage the recognition process and oversee the compensation of those affected by the chemical's environmental and health impacts. This primarily affects residents of the French Caribbean territories where chlordecone was used. It seeks to provide legal recognition and financial redress for individuals suffering from health issues linked to pesticide exposure.
