01/09/2022

Johannesburg – Morocco was elected member of the Executive Committee of the Association of Secretaries-General of African Parliaments (ASGAP) on the sidelines of the works of the standing committees of the Pan-African Parliament (PAP), held in Midrand, South Africa.

With this election, which took place on the eve of the 11th Conference of Presiding Officers of African National and Regional Parliaments, the Kingdom will sit in the Pan-African association as 1st Vice-President in the person of Najib El Khadi, Secretary General of the House of Representatives.

Morocco’s participation in ASGAP will be an opportunity to reinforce the legal framework that regulates this Association, especially since the representative of the Moroccan Parliament will be a member of the Committee in charge of elaborating the said framework.

Morocco consolidates its presence within the Pan-African Parliament, which it joined in 2018.
