The Commissariat général du Plan was a French institution that existed between 1946 and 2006, responsible for defining the economic planning of the country, particularly through Five Year Plans. The initial Plan Commission was appointed by General Charles de Gaulle in 1946.
The Centre d'analyse stratégique succeeded to the "Plan" in 2006.
