Notre-Dame-des-Landes : Vinci calls for hundreds of millions of euros

abandonment of the airport project of Notre-Dame-des-Landes (44), in January 2018, has not closed the file NDDL. Fierce negotiations will take place between the State and the group of BTP Vinci. It had been chosen for the construction and operation of the airport, a project finally rejected under the pressure of zadistes.

Elizabeth Terminal, minister of Transport, said Sunday on France 3, Vinci claimed "several hundred euros" in compensation. "They (Vinci, editor's NOTE) spoke of a few hundreds of millions of euros, while we're talking about a few tens of millions," she stated, before to be ironical: "We will have a fascinating discussion." Negotiations will therefore be: "We do a priori not agree on the amounts, pointed out the minister. But we will take our responsibilities on this matter." At the end of last year, the turnover of 425 million euros had been circulated.

The confidence of the minister occurs on a background of a project of privatisation of ADP, that covets Vinci. A sensitive project politically. To Elizabeth Terminal, Vinci is a good candidate, but this is not the only one. "Indeed, it is a group that has a great airport experience, she said. But there are others, and obviously this is not going to make it like this otc. There will be a consultation to choose the best candidate."

The minister rejects the idea according to which the choice of the group of BTP could figure to "compensation to the abandonment of Notre-Dame-des-Landes". This prosecution had been launched Thursday to the national Assembly by the opposition mps. "This is not working like that, said Elizabeth Terminal. It has a contract to Notre-Dame-des-Landes, on the termination of which is in the process of work, and in addition there will be a procedure on the Airports of Paris, of course with all the guarantees of transparency."
