The Progress and Socialism Team in the House of Representatives criticized the growth of random shops selling sacrifices in residential neighborhoods in a number of Moroccan cities, calling on the government to take the necessary measures to limit this phenomenon and modernize the spaces for selling sacrifices.

In a written question addressed to the Minister of the Interior, Abdel-Wafi Laftit, the parliamentary team reviewed the details of the memorandum issued by the Ministry of the Interior in 2018, which aims to combat random rental operations for shops selling Eid sacrifices, which many noted, considering that this measure will limit the growth of these shops that It causes harm to the surrounding population, contributes to the growth of chaos and an abundance of waste, and emits unpleasant odors.

In contrast, the same team revealed that there were those who expressed at the time their rejection of this memorandum, considering that it would deepen the crisis in the prices of sacrificial animals, and would force resorting to places designated for selling them in locations far from the population, which would cost additional transportation expenses that they did not need.

Between this opinion and that, the team called on the Ministry of the Interior to intervene to take whatever measures and procedures it deems appropriate to protect public health, confront all manifestations that contribute to the growing manifestations of chaos and randomness, determine the conditions for renting commercial shops for the benefit of breadwinners, and ensure respect for the law.

In addition, the team called for the opening of model markets for buying and selling sacrificial animals in locations not far from the population, where security and hygiene conditions and means of protecting the herd are available, such as water and fodder, free of charge, in the context of the Moroccan state keeping pace with Moroccans’ preparations to commemorate the ritual of Eid al-Adha.

Small municipalities can have more to deal with: – The municipal whip will be removed

Changes are expected in the distribution of the purse to the municipalities, if the government gets what it wants.

Many small municipalities which in recent years have lost financially by remaining alone will once once more receive a full subsidy in line with other municipalities. This means that there is less to distribute to the rest.

– The municipal whip will be removed from the income system. It is a tool that the Conservative Party put in to punish municipalities that did not join forces, says Municipal and District Minister Erling Sande (Sp) to NTB.

Lost on being alone

Basically, all municipalities receive a basic grant which is mainly to cover costs for administration.

Before 2017, all municipalities received full basic subsidy, but this was changed in connection with the municipal reform. The Solberg government graded the grant so that some municipalities that did not voluntarily merge with their neighbors lost out on it.

This should give the municipalities a push to get more people to join forces, the government believed at the time. They pointed out that the income system helped to preserve the municipal map. Those who voluntarily remained small might no longer send the bill to others in Kommune-Norge, the argument went.

But the Labor Party and the Center Party, which were then in opposition, strongly protested. It was difficult to talk regarding volunteering when the municipalities were faced with such financial consequences, they believed.

Now the government wants to reverse the system. They believe the grading is unreasonable and want it removed.

– The municipalities are free to govern themselves, that lies in the local self-government. There is no goal for them to join forces, says Sande.

Acknowledging that some people get less

There are 215 municipalities that will benefit from the move that is now being proposed, while 141 municipalities in isolation may be worse off, according to the government’s overview.

Sande acknowledges that the restructuring means that some municipalities will receive less.

– It will be distributed evenly, so there will not be a large sum per municipality, he says.

The outcome of who wins and loses from the changes in the income system is complex. The basic grant is just one of several elements in the government’s proposal for a new revenue system for the municipalities. It will be presented on Tuesday in the municipality’s bill.

Takes from the rich, gives to the poor

Another of the main points concerns how the income between the municipalities is distributed. Municipalities that are below the national average will receive almost NOK 2 billion more from tax revenue, Sande announced opposite NRK before the weekend. This is how the government will take from the rich and give to the poor.

Poor municipalities will receive tax revenues corresponding to at least 95 per cent of the national average following equalization. Today, those who get at least regarding 93 percent get it.

The right-wing municipal policy spokesperson, Mudassar Kapur, says that he finds it difficult to comment on individual parts before the government has presented the whole of the financial plan for the municipalities in the coming year. But he notes on a general basis that Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre (Ap) and Finance Minister Trygve Slagsvold Vedum (Sp) have so far been mostly concerned with symbolic politics and reversals.

– For the Conservative Party, it is a priority to put Norwegian municipalities in a position to deliver good services, and therefore an important municipal reform was carried out at the same time that the discretionary income of Kommune-Norge was strengthened by NOK 35 billion when we were in government, he says .
