The anti-Covid health pass was about to be adopted definitively on Sunday evening, deputies and senators having reached a compromise on this controversial text, the day after a new day of mobilization of its opponents.
The 14 parliamentarians gathered in a joint joint committee recorded their agreement in the early evening, after nearly four hours of meeting. And the Senate, dominated by the right, adopted the text in the wake of 195 votes for, 129 against and 17 abstentions.
A last-minute government amendment, empowering the prefects in a very structured way to impose the health pass for certain shopping centers, was validated – the measure had disappeared in the joint committee.
