| Description | French President Emmanuel Macron has proposed a radical overhaul of the country's government.
Speaking at the historic Palace of Versailles, he said he planned to cut the number of lawmakers by a third.
Doing so would produce a more efficient government and put France on a "radically new path", said Mr Macron.
The proposed cuts would reduce the number of National Assembly members from 577 to 385, and the numbers of Senate members from 348 to 232. |
