lever that cannot be costed
Lever with no coefficient in the cost schedule: the position is compared, not costed.
Current law, sources and limits of the cost schedule
Current law. Zero-interest loan (prêt à taux zéro) extended to the whole country for new housing (LFI 2025, temporary). Exemption from gift duties for the purchase of a main residence (LFI 2025).
Horizon. full year 2032, €bn/year
Limits. Lever that can be costed, but the cost of the « prêt à taux zéro » (zero-interest loan) tax credit (Voies et moyens, volume II, PLF 2026) is not recorded here: no coefficient or option (cost of the PTZ, of an additional generation of loans or of an extension to existing homes).
- AN, rapport spécial PLF 2026, Logement, 2025-10: « Le crédit d'impôt « Prêt à taux zéro », en revanche, va voir son incidence budgétaire croître, en lien avec son extension à tout le territoire pour les logements neufs et le logement collectif en LFI 2025. »
How to read these amounts. These are static costs and revenues, with no feedback effect, over a full year: nothing on growth, employment or the revenue that economic activity would gain or lose. A higher net cost does not on its own make a worse policy, nor net savings a better one: each programme rests on an economic model (demand-led stimulus, lower compulsory levies, consolidation of the public accounts…) that the cost schedule does not settle. GDP itself measures a volume of activity, not well-being or the usefulness of what is produced. Economic models and feedback effects.
