Renforcer la répression des incendies volontaires de forêt commis en période de risque exceptionnel de propagation

This French National Assembly bill, submitted as an ordinary law proposal, aims to strengthen criminal penalties for deliberately starting forest fires when conditions carry an exceptional risk of spreading. The aim is to deter arson at times when a small ignition can quickly become a large, dangerous blaze. This summary is based on the title and metadata only, not the full text of the bill. The measure would mainly affect people who intentionally set fires in forested areas during periods of exceptional fire danger, as well as the courts and authorities responsible for enforcement. Firefighters, forest owners and rural communities would be indirectly affected by any change in fire risk.
