The Revised Database of Elected Officials in France (BRÉF) is built from a primary source, the National Directory of Elected Officials (RNE), along with several secondary sources, including databases from the National Assembly, the Senate, and the European Parliament. The intention is to expand this database further by fully leveraging these secondary sources and, in the longer term, by integrating new databases and occasional contributions.
