The role of Speaker of the National Assembly according to Philippe Seguin

Publication date 09/10/1995 From €100.00

Assemblée nationale : institution républicaine

Philippe Seguin, President of the National Assembly since 1993 and author of the book "240 jours dans un fauteuil", defines the contours of his function: "Referee or intervener? Probably both at once. The French system does not make the President of the National Assembly a totally colorless being ... It is necessary to ensure a balance, impartiality in the conduct of debates, to refrain from intervening in the current debates ... but to keep its capacity for expression outside".

Publication date 18/02/1986 From €100.00

Assemblée nationale : institution républicaine

Le problème d'une éventuelle cohabitation après les élections législatives est envisagé du point de vue du droit constitutionnel et à la lumière des positions de précédents présidents de la République. Le politologue René Remond analyse les réactions de François Mitterrand et de Georges Pompidou lorsqu'ils ont été confrontés à ce choix. Si François Mitterrand a déclaré qu'il pouvait nommer le Premier ministre qu'il voulait, Georges Pompidou, lui, avait nuancé son propos en disant que "Le président de la République tient compte de la composition de l'Assemblée, mais n'en est pas esclave".

Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry on the Use of Public Funds: Instructions for Use

Publication date 03/03/1998 From €100.00

Assemblée nationale : institution républicaine

It is an order of 17 November 1958 which defines the role and organization of a parliamentary commission of inquiry. The 30 members who sit on the committee of inquiry represent proportionally all the political groups. The work cannot exceed 6 months and ends with the filing of a report. The meetings of the committee were secret until July 1991, when the law was amended to allow for the recording of hearings, with the exception of deliberations. As part of their investigation, Members of Parliament have important means: they can travel and have the power of coercion to hear any person or to be given any document they feel is necessary. The final report is made public. Comment on journalist on illustration images.

Pierre Joxe on the work of parliamentary groups

Publication date 30/11/1978 From €100.00

Assemblée nationale : institution républicaine

MP Pierre JOXE explains the work of parliamentary groups in the National Assembly. The weekly meetings of the elected representatives of the political parties are used to prepare the debates in the Assembly, to organize the work, to appoint speakers and to define the common political positions. Each group can create small working groups on specific topics. These meetings also provide an opportunity to take stock of current issues, outside of the predefined political agenda.

The issue of parliamentary committees of inquiry

Publication date 07/11/2007 From €100.00

Assemblée nationale : institution républicaine

A topic devoted to the issues of parliamentary commissions of inquiry in the relationship between the legislative and executive branches. This tool made available to the deputies allows to control the action of the government and the administrations, but as deplores the professor of constitutional law André MAUS, it is little followed of effect. The report drawn up by the committee members after months of debate is not discussed in open session. Yet commissions of inquiry have multiplied in recent years, especially to counter the phenomenon of "hyper-presidency". André VALLINI, Member of the European Parliament, agrees and regrets that the French Members of Parliament do not draw more inspiration from the habits of their American counterparts who devote a large part of their time to controlling what the government does. The journalist concluded by saying that the first commission of inquiry dates from the Revolution on the conditions of Louis XVI’s flight to Varennes.

Publication date 27/01/1959 From €100.00

Assemblée nationale : institution républicaine

Paul REYNAUD, Member of the European Parliament and former President of the Council, on the physical installation of Members in the Chamber. He explains that when the Estates General met in 1789, the nobility was seated at the right hand of King Louis XVI. He assumes that the Republicans did not dare to take this place afterwards. The British Parliament operates differently: whatever the political colour of the deputies, it is their majority or opposition that determines their place.

The political stakes of cohabitation by René Remond

Publication date 03/02/1981 From €100.00

Assemblée nationale : institution républicaine

Historian and political scientist René REMOND analyses the situation regarding the possible cohabitation between a president of the republic and an assembly of an opposite party. This situation can arise in every presidential or legislative election. He compares the opposing reactions of President Giscard d'Estaing in 1978 and François Mitterrand in 1981. If the former had said that he would try to govern with a majority against him, the latter expressed his wish to dissolve the Assembly, thus hoping to obtain a parliamentary majority.

Relations between the legislative branch and the executive: dissolution and motion of censure

Publication date 07/03/1978 From €100.00

Assemblée nationale : institution républicaine

Didactic subject devoted to the relationship between the executive and the National Assembly. The 1958 Constitution allows the President of the Republic to dissolve the National Assembly under certain conditions, except in the case of an interim presidency and the year following a dissolution. Apart from the legislative role of the deputies, the National Assembly has a mission of control of the government which is expressed through two procedures: questions to the government and the putting into play of the political responsibility which is expressed by the motion of censure, on the initiative of members of Parliament, and on the issue of confidence, on the initiative of the Prime Minister. The subject consists only of illustration images taken mostly inside the Palais Bourbon.

Parliamentary Attachés

Publication date 12/08/2002 From €100.00

Assemblée nationale : institution républicaine

Report. Following the defeat of the left in the general elections in June 2002, 250 deputies had to give up their seats. The parliamentary attachés assigned to them were then unemployed without any compensation. In the 1970s, the collaborators were volunteer activists. The latter protested since there is currently no status for this profession. The subject provides an update on this profession. The editing alternates archival and illustration images with interviews with Jean François Cassant, parliamentary assistant since 1997 and Sylvie Debord, parliamentary assistant since 1982.

Jean Philippe Lecat on political groups in Parliament

Publication date 13/05/1970 From €100.00

Assemblée nationale : institution républicaine

Jean Philippe LECAT, UDR Member of Parliament for Côte d'Or, discusses the evolution of parliamentarians' work. If in the past members could work alone, it is inconceivable today not to work in a caucus. The work of the UDR Group, as it has an absolute majority in parliament, has a great political significance. He concluded by saying: "The deputy in 1970 can no longer be a man alone. In law-making, he is a member of a commission and that is where he is effective, and politically he is a member of a political group and that is where he is effective."
