According to Sudinfo, despite his resignation, he should however receive a “special allowance” as provided for in the regulations of the Walloon administration. Jean-Claude Marcourt will thus receive €16,846 in addition to the allowance normally granted when he leaves his post as an MP.
This amount is calculated on the duration spent at the head of the Belgian administration. Jean-Claude Marcourt having been president of the Walloon parliament since September 13, 2019, he will be entitled to 8 months of special allowance according to the calculations of Sudinfo: 2 months per 12 months of office of president as well as 2 months of special allowance for twelve months started.
