Bernard Accoyer, est médecin oto-rhino-laryngologiste, docteur de la faculté de
médecine de Lyon. Il entre en politique en 1989 par son élection à la mairie

est élu au premier tour pour l’exercice d’un quatrième mandat.
En mars 1993, il est élu député de la première
circonscription de la Haute-Savoie. Il est réélu en 1997, en 2002 ainsi qu’en
2007.
Il est membre de la commission des affaires
culturelles, familiales et sociales de l’Assemblée nationale, et ses travaux
assidus y sont notamment consacrés aux problèmes sociaux et médicaux. Il est
ainsi le rapporteur du projet de loi portant réforme des retraites sous la XIIe législature après une opposition opiniâtre, sous la législature précédente, à
la mise en place des 35 heures, tout particulièrement dans le cadre du système
hospitalier.
Il préside le groupe UMP de 2004 à 2007, succédant à
Jacques Barrot, après avoir été premier vice-président du groupe de 2002 à
2004.
En devenant, sous la XIIIe législature, Président de l’Assemblée nationale, le 26 juin 2007, il confie : « Je pense à
ma famille, à mes proches, à tous ceux dont j’ai croisé la route, en
Rhône-Alpes, ma région, en Haute-Savoie, mon département d’adoption. Je les ai
rencontrés en vivant mes passions : mon métier, la médecine, la vie publique,
la politique ». Il déclare s’assigner pour objectif principal de « donner
à notre assemblée un plus grand rôle dans le fonctionnement de l'État, une
meilleure capacité de contrôle et d'évaluation, davantage de transparence et
d'efficacité, pour une démocratie irréprochable »
Marié et père de trois enfants, passionné de ski et
de cyclisme, Bernard Accoyer est membre de l’Académie nationale de chirurgie.

chiesto quali fossero i vantaggi dei vaccini contro l’influenza suina e che si

basandosi sul dato che l’influenza stagionale supera di gran lunga la pandemia
dell’influenza suina.
