The Nethys-Publifin case continues to raise many questions. During his address to the Chamber, Georges-Louis Bouchez returned to the recent revelations published by Sudinfo, which have reignited questions surrounding certain operations involving public shareholdings and figures close to the Parti socialiste.
The MR President referred in particular to recordings attributed to Dr Luc Joris, in which he claims to have been involved in several major property operations. According to these statements, contacts were allegedly made with political officials in order to influence certain decisions regarding the sale of public shareholdings or property belonging to public bodies.
Among the elements mentioned is the sale of shares held by Ogeo Fund in the property group Land Invest Group, as well as an operation involving a plot of land belonging to SNCB. If confirmed, these revelations would raise significant questions regarding governance, transparency and the management of public funds.
For Georges-Louis Bouchez, this information cannot be ignored. He also questions the lack of reaction to facts that are potentially so serious. "We are talking here about possible influence peddling and questions that directly concern the use of public money," he told the Chamber.
In light of these elements, the MR President believes that full clarity must be brought to this case. He is calling for those involved to be heard, so that the necessary explanations can be provided and citizens can learn the truth.
The MR will continue to defend a clear demand: where suspicions or grey areas exist in the management of public shareholdings, transparency must prevail. Citizens' trust in institutions depends on truth, accountability and strict respect for the public interest.
