Speaking at the opening of the Government Council, Akhannouch said that major projects are on the agenda for the new political year, including strengthening water and food sovereignty, as well as promoting investment to create jobs and make the “Morocco Offer” effective in the field of green hydrogen.
The government is also working to develop a new approach dedicated to direct support for families wishing to acquire a primary residence and to continue implementing the royal project for social protection, he added.
As part of this project, the social benefits program will be launched before the end of the current year, based on the unified social registry, which is the most effective mechanism for targeting poor and destitute households, he added.
In this regard, Akhannouch urged the various ministries and governmental bodies to intensify their efforts to implement the various public policies adopted by the government.
He also called on members of the government to give priority to projects that are the subject of high royal instructions and fall within the framework of agreements signed before His Majesty the King.
Regarding the implementation of major reforms, he affirmed that the government is committed to implementing ambitious public policies in priority social sectors such as education, health and employment.
He also pointed out that since its inauguration, the Government has been working in an international context marked by the recurrence of crises and the escalation of geopolitical tensions, stressing that the Kingdom, under the wise leadership of His Majesty the King, has been able to cope with these pressures and manage complex crises, limiting their repercussions and mitigating their direct impact on the national economy and the living standards of citizens.
Akhannouch highlighted the high royal directives contained in the Throne Day speech, which he described as a “compass for government action,” such as the guidance for the 2024 budget, the broad outlines of which reflect the seriousness of the executive.
The Head of the Government praised the full commitment of his Cabinet to the implementation of the High Royal Directives and the Government Program over the past two years, and called for speed and efficiency in the implementation of the various projects planned for the coming years in order to live up to the trust placed in His Majesty the King and the expectations of Moroccans.
