Conclusion et recommandations

In 2007, the French State voted a law aiming at ensuring an enforceable right to housing (the “DALO” law): under certain conditions, deprived households who live in inadequate housing conditions, are accommodated by a third, or are homeless, can appeal to an ad hoc commission.
