Morocco's Bill 41.26, introduced in 2024, aims to reform the country's social protection system by creating a unified framework for direct social assistance. The legislation, currently under parliamentary review, proposes cash transfers to vulnerable households, replacing fragmented subsidy programs.
Key provisions include targeting families with children, persons with disabilities, and elderly individuals without pension coverage. The bill establishes a national registry to identify beneficiaries based on socio-economic criteria, with payments disbursed quarterly.
According to official statements, the program is part of Morocco's broader social protection strategy, with an estimated budget of 25 billion dirhams annually. The law also mandates regular evaluations to ensure effectiveness and prevent fraud.
