During the weekly press briefing subsequent to the government council, government spokesperson Moustapha Baitas spoke of food security, unfair judgments, and a newly passed bill as he answered several questions.
The current government has always expressed its will to make syndicates and employers’ organizations, initial partners in to ease making many reforms, he explained.
In the same context, Baitas announced the formation of a commission made up of members of government and syndicates to oversee all efforts that can be done to increase the purchasing power of citizens.
The commission will begin operating in the coming weeks, and the labor minister will schedule a meeting with the public on April 30 of each year to discuss the committee’s activities in detail.
Since the strike law is the only remaining legislation from the 2011 constitution that was never put to a vote, Baitas stated that the administration will address the matter in the coming weeks and update people on its progress.
On Morocco’s food security, the government spokesperson said that in light of recent events and their serious reprecussion, it’s unfair to be judgmental, as these recent years, Morocco has lived through extreme drought and lack of precipitations, with water reserves backing down by 80%.
“A judgment should be fair as we should recall the full context and details to make fair judgments, otherwise we’re not fairly assessing any strategy,” said the official.
Morocco uses surface fertilizers, nitrogen in specific, which comes from China, Russia, and the United States, said Baitas adding that this fertilizer’s prices have increased significantly.
Speaking of the surge in production prices, Baitas declares that the government intervenes in several ways such as taking off Value Added Taxes or creating several funds to encourage production in agriculture.
Additionally, the government council passed a bill called 222800, to update the rules of air transport, for people with disabilities or limited mobility, which shall grant them several rights in relation to air travel.
The bill project stipulates that these people and their companions should be granted special care to allow them to access several services that are usually easily provided to everyone else on planes as well as lands.
With this new bill, air transporters will be for be banned from refusing passengers with disabilities.
