Councillors to the Assembly of French Guiana are entitled to training appropriate to their duties. Training is compulsorily organised during the first year of office for elected representatives who have received a delegation.
Within three months of its renewal, the Assembly of French Guiana deliberates on the exercise of the right to training of its members.
The Assembly of French Guiana may also deliberate on its participation in the financing of training courses from which its elected representatives may benefit at their initiative as part of their individual right to the training mentioned in article L. 7125-12-1. This decision determines, in particular, the scope of the training courses giving entitlement to this contribution, which must correspond to the guidelines determined in application of the previous paragraph. The decision may limit this contribution to a maximum amount per training course and to a maximum number of training courses per elected representative and per mandate. The proportion of the educational costs of the training financed by the fund for the individual right to training of local elected representatives provided for in article L. 1621-3 may not be less than a rate set by decree.
A table summarising the training initiatives for elected representatives financed by the local authority is appended to the administrative account. It shall give rise to an annual debate on the training of councillors to the Assembly of French Guyana.
