#CPPB2611105ASignature delegation for Budget Directorate officials
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This order gives several senior officials at France’s Budget Directorate the power to sign certain acts, decisions, and agreements on behalf of the minister, but not decrees. It also extends signing authority to several named staff members for matters within specific sub-directorates, and to four HR/finance-related officials for budget execution documents, while excluding personnel management acts. For businesses and public-sector counterparties, the practical point is simple: these named officials can now sign routine budget-related documents without needing the minister’s personal signature. The order replaces two earlier delegation orders from November 2025 and February 2026.
