lead in: the now french government, headed by prime minister raymond barro, met in paris on thursday (31 march 77) for the first time.
and their first task was an attempt to find an "action policy" to enable the majority coalition to win next year's legislative elections.
president valery giscard d'estaing and prime minister barre published a list of 15 new ministers on wednesday (30 march 77) ... and it's a new-look streamlined cabinet they've come up with.
the new men will have to fight a tough battle against the growing socialist - communist coalition which swept to an impressive victory in last week's nationwide municipal elections.

commentary: president giscard d'estaing re-appointed barre as premier and finance minister immediately after the government resigned on monday (28 march 77). absent from the new government were three key political figures of the earlier cabinet ... interior minister michel poniatowski, giscard's main confidant; justice minister olivier guichard; and jean lecanuet, former planning minister. new planning minister is jean-pierre fourcade; new justice minister is alain peyrefitte. the latter is, perhaps, the most interesting newcomer. he's a gaullist who's had a long career in pre-giscardian cabinets and is the best-selling author of "la mal francais" (the french illness) ... a book which condemns over-centralization in french public affairs.
