King Mohammed VI of Morocco presided over a Council of Ministers meeting at the Royal Palace in Rabat on April 9, 2026. During the session, Interior Minister Abdelouafi Laftit presented the broad outlines of a major reform project aimed at restructuring the country's territorial governance.
The reform, which received the King's approval, seeks to modernize and refound the administrative organization of Morocco's regions. It is designed to enhance the efficiency of local governance and bring public services closer to citizens, aligning with the nation's development goals.
According to official statements, the initiative will involve a revision of the legal and regulatory frameworks governing territorial collectivities. The King emphasized the need for the reform to be implemented gradually and pragmatically, ensuring it responds effectively to citizens' expectations and contributes to balanced regional development.
The approval of this reform marks a significant step in Morocco's ongoing administrative decentralization process, which has been a key pillar of the King's vision for modernizing the state's structures.
