Gilles Carrez (born 29 August 1948) is a French politician of the Republicans who served as a member of the National Assembly of France,representing the Val-de-Marne's 5th constituency,from 1993 to 2022. [1] He did not stand for re-election in the 2022 French legislative election. [2]
Carrez is the author of the 1996 Carrez law which obliges the vendor of a property lot (or fraction of a lot) in a condominium to specifically mention the surface area in all documents relating to the property sold. [3]
In response to a 2019 law authorizing the sale of the government's controlling stake in Groupe ADP,Carrez supported a cross-party initiative which called for a referendum to overturn the legislation,citing concerns over the loss of government revenue and influence. [4] [5]
In October 2014,Carrez was found to have avoided paying the French solidarity tax on wealth (ISF) for three years by applying a 30 percent tax allowance on one of his homes. However,he had previously converted the home into an SCI,a private,limited company to be used for rental purposes. The 30 percent allowance does not apply to SCI holdings. Once this was revealed,Carrez declared,"if the tax authorities think that I should pay the wealth tax,I won't argue." At the time,Carrez was one of more than 60 French parliamentarians battling with the tax offices over 'dodgy' asset declarations. [6]
A wealth tax is a tax on an entity's holdings of assets or an entity's net worth. This includes the total value of personal assets,including cash,bank deposits,real estate,assets in insurance and pension plans,ownership of unincorporated businesses,financial securities,and personal trusts. Typically,wealth taxation often involves the exclusion of an individual's liabilities,such as mortgages and other debts,from their total assets. Accordingly,this type of taxation is frequently denoted as a netwealth tax.
The Île-de-France is the most populous of the eighteen regions of France,with an official estimated population of 12,271,794 residents on 1 January 2023. Centred on the capital Paris,it is located in the north-central part of the country and often called the Paris Region. Île-de-France is densely populated and retains a prime economic position on the national stage:though it covers only 12,012 square kilometres,about 2% of metropolitan French territory,its 2017 population was nearly one-fifth of the national total.
In France,taxation is determined by the yearly budget vote by the French Parliament,which determines which kinds of taxes can be levied and which rates can be applied.
