Luanda, ANGOLA, December 19 - The Angolan National Assembly (Parliament) on Monday approved the bill that authorises the Head of State to legislate on the repealing of the current Regime of Delimitation and Co-ordination of the State’s Central and Local Administrations. ,

The document was passed through the favourable votes of the ruling MPLA party MPs (who proposed the bill), while the opposition abstained.  

 

The minister of Territory Administration and State Reform, Adão de Almeida, said on the occasion that the objective is to strengthen the mechanisms of institutional administrative de-concentration. 

 

He said a new regulation is to be approved with a view to creating better conditions and guaranteeing better harmony among the State Administration organs.  

 

 

A propósito, Alcides Sakala, da UNITA, disse ser convicção do seu partido a criação com urgência de condições para a implantação das autarquias no país.

 

In this ambit, Alcides Sakala, an MP of the country’s largest opposition UNITA party, said that his organisation is convinced that it is urgent the need for creating the necessary conditions for the implementation of elected local governments. 

 

“One should not confuse the citizens with the transfer of power from the central administration organs to local organs that represent the central power (...)”, he emphasised. 

 

Meanwhile, the minister of Territory Administration and State Reform, Adão de Almeida, said he understands the anxiety about the materialisation of the local governments, but reminded the MPs that the goodwill of the Executive is reflected on the pronouncements of the Head of State, João Lourenço, regarding this issue, which have been clear about such move, which is on the government’s agenda.
