A bill is debated so that tenants exceeding the resource ceiling of their HLM accommodation pay a rent supplement. Beyond a certain threshold, they could also leave their HLM.
For the past four years, a retiree has rented HLM accommodation with his wife. It is a house of 50 square meters, located at the gates of Lille (North). His rent, which amounts to 450 euros with charges, could soon climb. In a few years, the couple’s pensions have increased to the resource ceiling of around 30,000 euros, set to obtain this type of accommodation.
