Government mid-term review charts progress and sets upcoming priorities
Wednesday 24 April 2024 - 18:57

The head of government, Aziz Akhannouch, presented the mid-term results of his cabinet’s mandate and objectives set for the coming period before Parliament on Wednesday, affirming that their main objective is to satisfy the Moroccan citizens.

Akhannouch spoke of an “unprecedented social revolution” led by King Mohammed VI, and launched under his government.

“This review that we present today could not have taken place without, first of all, a clear-sighted royal vision, and then a governmental harmony, a politically strong government, stable through the solidarity of its components, and whose work continues thanks to the success of its programs,” he declared.

“What was achieved during half the term exceeded all expectations, and was reflected in the high keenness to implement our various pledges, without searching for justification in the succession of complex crises that our country has experienced.”

He praised the projects undertaken under royal instructions, such as the Family Code, which is being overhauled, or the major social coverage project, affirming that the objective is so that  ‘there is not a vulnerable Moroccan family, threatened by poverty and fragility, without public assistance that protects their dignity.”

“Our objective is to succeed in health coverage and to offer a health offer that preserves the dignity of each citizen,” declared the head of government during his speech to parliamentarians and executive members.

Akhannouch also highlighted the challenge of introducing quality education that guarantees “equal opportunities” and strengthens the national economy through investments and job creation.

On the Sahara issue, the head of government said that “within the framework of this wise royal vision, Moroccan diplomacy has achieved several gains in the issue of the Moroccan Sahara, which is reflected in the successive international recognitions of the Moroccan Sahara, as a culmination of the relevance of the royal approach in managing this issue.”

“This sober approach seeks to make our southern regions a geopolitical space of reference that carries peace, stability and prosperity for the region.”
