A session of questions relating to general policy addressed to the head of government will take place on October 19, on government policy amid the epidemiological situation.

According to a press release issued at the end of the weekly meeting of the Bureau of the House, held on Tuesday, this session of questions relating to general policy will be themed “Government policy amid evolution of epidemiological situation”.

With regard to the control mission, the Bureau of the House reviewed the “positive” results of the previous session, regarding the weekly oral questions.

The Bureau decided, following consultations between the speaker of the house and the parliamentary groups and grouping, to devote the agenda of the weekly questions for the month of October to the sectors of education and agriculture (session of Oct. 12) and of health and interior (session of Oct. 26).

The Bureau underlined the importance of the control dimension as a mechanism which contributes to the strengthening of the presence of the house in the various large-scale projects and institutions requiring an effective follow-up.

On this occasion, Speaker of the House Habib El Malki reviewed the events that the country has experienced in recent weeks, namely the speeches of HM King Mohammed VI on the occasion of the Throne Day and the Revolution of the King and the People, through which the Sovereign identified structural projects at the social and economic levels.

The speaker and the members of the Bureau of the House also recalled the efforts made by the standing committees during the period between the two sessions, whether in terms of the approval of certain decree-laws dictated by the national interest or through the management control of different ministerial sectors.

The Bureau of the House also examined the legislative report presented by the parliamentary groups and grouping within the framework of the legislative proposals concerning the legal framework of the organic law relating to the House of Representatives and the provisions concerning civil procedure, illicit enrichment and conflict of interest.

With regard to the House’s relation with certain constitutional institutions, the Bureau took note of several reports drawn up by the Economic, Social and Environmental Council (CESE), namely the annual report and the Council’s opinion on the regional inclusion of Morocco in Africa.

It also examined the report by the National Council for Human Rights (CNDH) on the “Jerada protests”, as well as the annual report prepared by the National Anti-corruption body “Instance nationale de la probité, de la prévention et de lutte contre la corruption.”
