Philippe Pradal was recently appointed as the national secretary in charge of immigration issues within the Horizons party. This strategic designation reflects the importance of this subject in the program of the political movement led by Édouard Philippe.
A former mayor of Nice and experienced municipal councilor, Philippe Pradal was recently appointed as the national secretary in charge of immigration issues within the Horizons party. The party, led by Édouard Philippe, with Christian Estrosi appointed as the President of the assembly of mayors, is continuing its structuring process. This appointment marks a key step in Horizons’ approach to addressing migration challenges. The outgoing deputy of the 3rd district of the Alpes-Maritimes combines local experience and national vision, two valuable assets for his new role.
With Horizons, Philippe Pradal advocates for a pragmatic approach to immigration, grounded in the reality of the territories and in respect of republican values. Through this appointment, the party highlights its commitment to balancing control and humanism. Philippe Pradal, as the rapporteur of the recent immigration law, has already demonstrated his ability to work on tailored regulatory measures. These aim to combine administrative firmness with respect for human rights.
His experience in Nice, a border city particularly exposed to migratory flows, enhances his understanding of the specific challenges in certain regions. Horizons hopes to leverage this expertise to formulate proposals for controlled regulation and integration, while ensuring border security. In his capacity as President of the Finance Commission at the Nice city hall, he will continue to work in collaboration with local elected officials and grassroots organizations to ensure an approach in line with local realities.
