Before him, Emmanuel Macron and Bruno Retailleau had also visited the site.
François Bayrou held a meeting on Wednesday from Pau by videoconference with several ministers on the situation in the archipelago, particularly on the issue of reconstruction and housing. A new meeting was held this Thursday at Matignon. Reinforcements have come from mainland France and a special law will be presented to the Assembly to facilitate the reconstruction of the island.
Élisabeth Borne and Manuel Valls to accompany her
The Prime Minister will be accompanied by the Minister of State for Education, Higher Education and Research, Élisabeth Borne, as well as the Minister of State for Overseas Territories, Manuel Valls.
Valérie Létard, Minister of Housing, and Yannick Neuder, Minister of Health, as well as the Minister Delegate and former Senator of Mayotte, Thani Mohamed Soilihi, in charge of Francophonie and International Partnerships, will also be on the trip.
Chido is the most devastating cyclone to hit Mayotte in 90 years and caused colossal damage on December 14 in France's poorest department, where relief efforts have since been working to restore essential services such as water, electricity and communications networks.
