The draft bill provides for the authorization of the transfer to private sector of the majority of Groupe ADP's capital, puts a time limit of 70 years on the right to operate Parisian airports, whereupon the French State will get the full ownership of the land and the infrastructures located in Île-de-France and adapts accordingly the group's business regulation.
