What systemic issues contribute to the inconsistent implementation of the Taquet law, and what financial implications are involved?

Inconsistent implementation stems from a lack of collective mobilization among state and local authorities, leading to highly disparate levels of support duration and resources. Departments allocate significant post-18 resources (estimated at €1.2 billion), yet their distribution is uneven. The lack of standardized access to basic rights further complicates the issue.
