🇬🇧 English

This law replaces a special allowance for certain French civil servants, military personnel, and judges with a new regressive allowance. The change means the previous fixed allowance is phased out, being replaced by one that decreases as an individual's salary increases with promotions. This affects those who were eligible for the allowance as of 2014, with a new cap on monthly payments introduced.
