The French are back on the case of the 90-day rule and now, according to The Connexion, a French MP is pushing to find a solution to bring in easier visiting visas for British second-home owners and is pushing the Interior Ministry to reply on the topic. In November, 2023, when France was expected to vote in favour of easing or scrapping the 90-day rule for British home owners in France, the Bulletin interviewed the French senator, Martine Berthet of Savoie, who sparked calls for the 90-day cap to be eased or lifted in Spain. However at the last reading of her amendment, it was rejected. But, the Senator has not given up.
