تقييم البرلمان المغربي للسياسات العمومية : دلالاته و آلياته و إشكالياتها

الملخص EN

Morocco's 2011 constitution affirms the power of parliament to 'evaluate public policies', a mandate that changes the presidential nature of the monarchy and its tendency towards a parliamentary character, by involving parliament, as a legislative authority, in public policymaking.

In this sense, it is a mechanism for achieving the principle of linking responsibility to accountability.

It comes to enshrine the flexible concept of separation of power based on its balance and cooperation, and also to embody the concepts of citizenship and participatory democracy, as well as the embodiment of good governance.

The constitutional legislator has put in place a number of mechanisms to activate it, including: the annual session to discuss and evaluate public policies, the prime minister's presentation to Parliament of the progress report of the government, the monthly session devoted to the questions of general policy, the parliamentary debate on the reports of a number of constitutional institutions, and the need for budget liquidation laws to be presented to parliament in the second year following its implementation, and a group of constitutional institutions are subject to parliament's request to assist him in assessing public policies.

One of the problems produced by parliamentary practice was that of members of Parliament discussing the Prime Minister's presentation and the latter's response to that debate, whether it took place in two joint sessions of the Houses of Parliament or in their own sessions? The practice of doing so in joint meetings has proved unconstitutional.
