At the microphone of France Inter, Thursday, July 9, the new Culture minister Roselyne Bachelot has been estimated that a "broad consensus" was to rebuild "the same," the spire of the cathedral, while a consultative commission meets Thursday on this topic.

"
Roselyne Bachelot said she would go Thursday afternoon " to greet the structure that manages this folder, which will make its conclusions ". The national Commission of heritage and architecture in canada (fpcc), which brings together elected officials, experts and architects from the construction site, must discuss on Thursday the modalities of the reconstruction of Notre-Dame, partly destroyed by fire in April 2019. "Three records" are to be examined : the roof, the roof, and the arrow pointed to the minister of Culture.
