New rebound in the controversy on the remuneration of the patterns. At the end of a meeting last night at the Elysee Palace, key leaders of the UMP Nicolas Sarkozy and François Fillon, an agreement seemed to emerge in the majority to "implement quickly the recommendations made by the head of State Tuesday to Saint-Quentin", said Frédéric Lefebvre, spokesman for the UMP. To obtain tangible results, the Government will focus in the short-term variable remuneration in business directly aided by the State (contributions in funds, guarantees, loans). "Business leaders cannot have bonus when their business is assisted by the State", yet repeated Nicolas Sarkozy the UMP parliamentarians, yesterday afternoon.
Disappointed and annoyed

Agreements have already passed with banks in the fall, but they are incomplete. Banks are committed to apply the Afep-Medef code, to reform the remuneration of the traders and not operate of share repurchases. In addition, leaders have renounced their variable part of the title of the 2008 results 2009. But nothing is expected on the allocation of stock options and free shares. Leading to "case" Société Générale. The existing agreements will be completed to prohibit these benefits for the directors. And when there is no agreement, which may be the case in the automobile, contracts will be passed to clearly establish the rules of the game. To impose these changes, the Government has nevertheless need a regulatory base (order), or even legislative. "If this regulation does not work, it passes through Act during the consideration of the budget group in the Senate, next week", said a government source. Matignon is responsible to the light at the legal level of here Monday. Participants at the meeting yesterday evening were confident in the possibility of avoiding recourse to the law, which, at worst, would be an amendment to the collective.
For several days, the head of State is seeking a solution to avoid a global legislation on the compensation of patterns, despite the mounting pressure in the majority. He fears any perennial device which would force companies in normal time. However, "The ISF has shown", whenever we legislate, even in exceptional circumstances, it is never above, he explained these days to his troops. The alternative would be to increase taxes on stock options, as requested by the PS and some elected UMP, but this would be contrary to the message hammered against "any increase in tax". If a solution emerges therefore for companies aided by the State, the largest blur reign in contrast with those who, without subsidy, "massively" resort to partial unemployment or engage social plans "massive". Nicolas Sarkozy wants to, there still, prohibit any bonus to the leaders and set an ultimatum to the Medef to make proposals. But he received a bar late yesterday, Laurence Parisot. And the State has little means of coercion against the companies, except to prohibit them from partial unemployment, which would penalise employees. The Government was disappointed and irritated, the written response from Medef is still not opening on the best value in favour sharing employees, claimed again strongly by Nicolas Sarkozy Tuesday evening. The head of State has launched yesterday to parliamentarians about Laurence Parisot: "Cannot not be drinking a donkey is not thirst."
