In fact calls multiply including side Union

The mobilization of hospital doctors is perhaps pay. It is in all cases the pandemonium of combat to the Government. At the end of the demonstration against Hospital Reform Act, which brought together 8,000 people yesterday in Paris according to the police, the Prime Minister convened a meeting of crisis at Matignon. Objective: calm the anger of white gowns by amending the text, which must be considered in Committee in the Senate today. François Fillon has listened to the proposals of the UMP Senators to better associate doctors hospital governance. "I think I can say that all of our proposals received the approval of the Prime Minister", declares the "Echos" Nicolas About, (UMP) President of the commission for Social Affairs of the Senate.

The never seen in the capital

The senators will "confirm the leading role of the Director of the hospital", which may not meet many doctors who have been on strike yesterday. But they are also preparing to "strengthen the role of the Executive Board", a body which will be composed mostly of physicians. The Executive Board, whose members are mostly appointed by the Director, will be particularly responsible for "to develop and to approve the medical project" of the institution, said Nicolas About Public-Senate.

The Senate also wants to give "more responsibility to the President of the medical commission" (CME), the body that represents doctors in the hospital. The heads of Poles would be always appointed by the Director, but on a list proposed by the Chairman of the CME. Another concession, the text would be reference services, which are not mentioned in the current version of the project. Final arbitration must be made today and the meeting of the commission for Social Affairs of the Senate tomorrow.

The Executive has quickly reacted to the strong mobilization of the public hospital practitioners. Doctors of the Assistance publique-Hôpitaux in Paris have made strike at more than 50, according to the Government, which was never seen. The mobilization was much lower in province less than 13 of physicians strikers level national as well as among the other categories of staff of the hospital a little more than 10 in Paris, 2-3 at the national level. But the movement has been held to be sufficiently important to move the Government, as of influential Parisian service leaders have actively participated.

Calls for the resumption of the course

Physicians have received support from scholars, who were demonstrating, too, yesterday. But this eleventh appeal launched by the intersyndicale was less followed. They were between 3,300 (according to the police) and 14,000 (according to the organizers) to scroll in France. Spokesman save the University Jean-Louis Fournel, however wants to believe that the holding, today, coordination of universities will "boost the movement" because, he says, "colleagues are outraged by the provocative nature of the Government", which published Saturday the Decree on teachers-researchers. Yesterday, 22 of 85 universities were disrupted, including 9 quite strongly (Amiens, Caen, Paris-III, IV and VIII...). Most of them have implemented plans of upgrading courses and exams. The Ministry estimates that the supporters of a resumption of the course are now majority. In fact, calls multiply, including side Union.
