The Finance, General Economy and Budgetary Control committee, chaired by Mr. Éric Woerth (Les Républicains, Oise) examined, during its meeting on 28th October 2020, an investigation report requested from the Cour des comptes under Section 2 of Article 58 of the Constitutional Bylaw on Budget Acts, relating to civil service overtime, which covers the three “sides” of the civil service. This study was based on analysis of payslips from the Central Government civil service and, for the territorial civil service and the hospital civil service, on a specific quantitative study carried out by the Cour des comptes to create and use a database for 2018.
