Rapporteuse Özlem Özen

Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker. by Mr. Verstraeten, the main author of this bill, first explained that it aims to eliminate a partial grouping at the level of offences and persons referred to in Article 225, 3° of the Social Criminal Code and in Article 169 of the Law on Compulsory Health Care Insurance and Compensation, coordinated on 14 July 1994.

Indeed, the 2006 and 2008 health laws established a specific system for settling disputes between care providers and the INAMI Medical Assessment and Control Service, but this system was implicitly removed when the Social Criminal Code was introduced, while this was not the will of the legislator. Our committee had to remedy this. In addition, the Commissioners took advantage of the examination of the articles to introduce two amendments.

by Mr. Van Hecke felt it was a good thing to fix this mistake. He submitted an amendment No. 2 so that Article 169 applies not only to care providers but also to similar persons, as defined in Article 2 n) of the Law on Compulsory Health Care Insurance and Indemnities. This amendment, after receiving the consent of the representative of the Minister of Justice, was adopted unanimously.

For my part, I also filed an amendment No. 1, introducing a new article that replaces the current article 28, § 4 of the Social Criminal Code because, as drafted, this article does not allow social inspectors to enter data other than social recorded in the royal decree. It was therefore imperative that our commission intervene to make the list of the royal decree referred to in Article 28, § 4 of the Social Criminal Code, no longer limitative but rather indicative. This precision aims to facilitate the work of social inspectors so that the fight against social fraud is not hindered. The Minister’s representative also clarified that a limited list had been impossible to draw up. Amendment No. 1 was therefore also adopted unanimously.

The whole proposal, as amended, was adopted unanimously.


President André Flahaut

Madame Özen, you congratulate for your first intervention in this assembly. (Applause of Applause)

Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the rapporteur for her excellent report. In the course of the day, I will tell her my family name again.

I also thank the colleagues for the quick completion, which allowed us to correct the mistake we had made in the adoption of the legislation on the Social Criminal Code.
