Senate votes to make sexual crimes against minors imprescriptible
On October 26, 2026, a collective of organizations and personalities advocated making sexual crimes and offenses against minors imprescriptible, as the Senate was due to examine the child protection bill. The following day, the Senate began examining this text on the Aide sociale à l'enfance, in a context where Marine Le Pen sought to capitalize on the issue. Minister Aurore Bergé defended the imprescriptibility of crimes against minors on Public Sénat. On October 29, the Senate restored this imprescriptibility by 252 votes to 80, paving the way for final adoption.
