Rétablir la double peine dans sa version originelle

Stage committeeUpdated 6d ago

This French private member's bill (proposition de loi ordinaire) seeks to bring back the 'double peine' (double penalty) in its original form. Under this system, a foreign national convicted of a criminal offence can face expulsion from France in addition to the prison sentence they serve. The title suggests the bill would reverse later limits placed on this rule. This summary is based only on the procedure's metadata, not the full bill text, so the exact provisions are not confirmed here. The bill would mainly affect non-French nationals living in France who are convicted of crimes, and their families. It would also affect courts and immigration authorities that apply expulsion decisions. Its precise scope depends on the text as adopted or amended during debate.
