Overview
- Psychiatrist Thierry Baubet resigned on Wednesday, citing disagreements over decisions and how the commission operates.
- On Thursday, Solène Podevin Favre announced her departure and Face à l’Inceste’s walkout, denouncing a deleterious climate and the silencing of victims.
- The exits leave magistrate Maryse Le Men Regnier as the only remaining member of the three-person leadership.
- Health Minister Stéphanie Rist said she has taken note of the resignations and called for an independent support mission to ensure continuity and overhaul methods and internal organization.
- Divisions center on key legal proposals such as making sexual crimes against minors imprescriptible, with a recent plenary reportedly rejecting an ASE working group opinion, and Face à l’Inceste says the body lacks resources and will now lobby parliamentarians for reforms.
