The regional socialist representatives wanted to respond to the remarks made by Deputy Rudy Salles (elected in the constituency) regarding the Lycée de Drap.
Here is their statement:
“While it is through consensus among representatives from all sides that we finally managed to build the Lycée de Drap, we regret that the electoral period is reigniting political posturing on this matter.
The press conference held by Deputy Rudy Salles had absolutely no purpose since the lycée will welcome its first students as planned at the start of the next school year, and the train stop will be operational from the first day of class. Moreover, it will be a unique facility in France. Its construction will begin in March and will be completed by the end of June according to RFF. There was never any question of it being otherwise, and it is regrettable that misinformation is causing concern among the parent community.
Furthermore, how can Deputy Salles pretend to wonder if parents will need one or two subscriptions for their children’s transportation, when he knows full well that the Region has introduced, in accordance with its electoral promises, the Zou card, which ensures free regional transport (TER and LER) for young people under 26 on home-to-school routes?”
