Acting under the state aid rules laid down in the EC Treaty, the European Commission on 20 July 2005 sent France a recommendation proposing that it amend three state measures that provide support for the mutual societies of French civil servants, federated within the Mutualité Fonction Publique (MFP). The Commission took the view that the measures could constitute state aid and that they impeded the development of the market for complementary sickness insurance. The proposal was intended to ensure that the conditions governing the activity of the various bodies operating on that market were fair. It would prevent discriminatory state financing and would also allow civil servants who are not necessarily members of the mutual societies within the MFP to have access to the social services receiving support from the state. |
