Social rent: more fairness to speed up renovation

The reform of the “warm rent” makes it possible to take a home's energy performance into account when calculating social rents. The aim is to make the system fairer between tenants, while giving the sector the means to renovate more homes. Better-insulated housing means more comfort, lower energy bills and a more sustainable public housing stock for families.

Reform of public housing governance

The public housing model has reached a crossroads. Without far-reaching reform, both the quality of service to users and the sustainability of the organisations appear to be under threat. The Walloon Government has therefore launched the necessary reforms to improve governance in the sector, through the creation of the Walloon Housing Agency and local housing hubs, as well as the ongoing restructuring at la Sambrienne.

More police capacity through the takeover of nuclear site security by the military

The federal police are regaining police capacity! Since 1 July, military personnel have been providing security at the Tihange and Doel nuclear sites. From 1 December, the same will apply to the nuclear facilities in Mol, Geel and Dessel, and from April 2026 to the Fleurus site. This frees up police capacity that can be redeployed to fight crime, particularly in Brussels.

Additional investment in internal security

The security services will receive additional resources to better protect citizens and strengthen their action on the ground. On top of the 450 million euros provided for in the coalition agreement, 5% of the defence effort, around 200 million euros a year, will be devoted to internal security. These resources will notably support the police, Defence back-up for certain sensitive missions, new helicopters for the Federal Police, the merger of Brussels' police zones and the recruitment of 100 inspectors to fight social and tax fraud. The aim: more presence, more coordination and more effectiveness against everyday threats.

A modernisation of the framework for arms and defence licences in Wallonia

The defence industry is one of those that make the reputation of the Walloon Region and has stood out for centuries through its internationally recognised performance. The Walloon Government is modernising the regulatory framework in this field in order to guarantee ethical principles, including human rights, more effectively; to clarify and streamline the existing system so as to make it clearer; to modernise the instrument in order to support the defence industry; and to ensure its legal compliance with European law.

End of an obstacle to women's participation in societal engagement

The ban on combining maternity leave with a local political mandate or certain forms of volunteering will be scrapped. From the 15th day after giving birth, the women concerned will be able to continue these commitments without losing their benefits. This option will also be extended to birth leave, adoption leave and foster parent leave, so that parenthood is no longer a brake on civic engagement.
