00:05 Hello. We start the Maghreb Press Review with the Economist's Editorial Office.
00:09 For a week, the various ministers have been in front of the Commission of the House of Representatives
00:14 to present their sectoral budget for next year.
00:17 This operation is part of the Finance Law Project Review.
00:21 It is an opportunity to assess the work carried out this year
00:24 and the degree of concretization of the projects presented in 2022
00:28 as part of the Finance Law Project of 2023.
00:31 It is also an opportunity to activate control by calling on government members
00:36 during the holding of these commissions.
00:38 The rule requires that the minister present his budget project
00:41 and come back to the deputies during another meeting dedicated to the debate.
00:47 The idea is to apply the constitutional principle of responsibility
00:50 related to the accounting review.
00:52 At the level of the first chamber, the observation is that two categories of ministers have emerged.
00:57 The first is composed of competent ministers who master their files and their departments,
01:02 according to the Economist's Editorial Office.
01:05 The planned end of the Moroccan National Tourism Office is also the Economist's first.
01:10 Fatem Zahra Ammour announced in front of the deputies his next dissolution.
01:14 This office will be transformed into a Moroccan Tourism Agency in 2024.
01:18 The idea is to set up a new structure in the service of the strategy of tourist promotion.
01:24 The action plan of the Fatem Zahra Ammour department also plans to reposition the Tourism Observatory
01:31 to level its work tools.
01:33 This will in particular allow to expand its field of intervention.
01:37 Following the resounding success of the water highway from Wedsbouw to the dam Sidi Mouhamed Ben Abdelallah in Rabat,
01:45 a similar project linking the dam Oued El Mahazine to Tangier will be launched soon.
01:50 This is what the 360 of an authorized source has learned.
01:53 This water highway, the second of its kind, in importance after that of Wedsbouw to Rabat,
01:58 should also pass through the Dar Khrofa dam, then through the 9 April 1947 dam,
02:04 before reaching its final destination, Tangier.
02:07 This large agglomeration wants to ensure in the coming months its sustainable self-sufficiency in drinking water.
02:13 The Tunisian economy should accelerate slightly without a growth rate to reach 3% in 2025-2026,
02:21 this is indicated by a book on Tunisia published this Monday by the World Bank and relayed by Tunis Webdo.
02:30 In this report entitled "Migration in a complex economic context",
02:34 the Bank foresees a slight decrease in inflation due to the relatively significant gap in production post-COVID
02:41 and slight increases in public salaries following last year's UGTT government agreement.
02:48 The latest findings confirm that the budget deficit in Tunisia will still be very substantial
02:55 to hope for a rapid recovery while the rest of the macroeconomic indicators are in the red.
03:02 And all suggests that it will be for a long time, estimates the editorialist of the Tunisian press.
03:08 Energy spending, subsidies for basic products,
03:11 the allocated budgets to maintain the financial balance of public companies and the wage mass
03:16 continue to put a strong pressure on the budget of the Tunisian state.
03:20 Faced with this complex picture, it is very difficult to say with certainty about the priorities of the Tunisian decision makers.
03:28 Thank you for following the Maghreb press.
03:31 Very good program news on Media.
