Without this approval, these decisions are automatically null and void. Article 2.- This decree shall be published and executed at the behest of the Prime Minister and of all the ministers, each in his respective capacity. Given at the National Palace, Port-au-Prince, May 23, 2018, Year 215 of Independence By : The President, Jovenel Moïse Prime Minister Jack Guy Lafontant" A decree that provoked strong reactions and speculations of all kinds, ranging from the intention of President Moïse to totally vassalize the National Police of Haiti (PNH), until the next dismissal of Michel-Ange Gédéon, the Director General of the PNH little appreciated by the Executive. The former Director General of the PNH Mario Andrésol considers that this is an implicit revocation of Gédeon, even if he remains convinced that an order can not modify the law establishing the PNH, he urges the Head of State to reconsider this decision. Senator Francenet Dénius (VERITE) close to power, believes that the executive has exceeded the limits and demands the withdrawal of this decree. For his colleague Nènel Cassis (LAVAL) this Decree is a form of coup against the PNH to try to hand it over to the political authorities, the full power through the CSPN who could before this Order, only give its opinion on the regulation of the PNH and a set of provisions. He called for the mobilization of both chambers for the withdrawal of this decree. The National Network for the Defense of Human Rights (RNDDH), just like Justice and Peace fear an absolute hand of the Executive on the PNH and recommends to the Parliament, in order to avoid the politicization of the police, to intervene quickly to force the Executive to recall this presidential decree.
