Wednesday at the National Palace, the de facto President Jocelerme Privert, accompanied by François Anick Joseph, Minister of Interior and Territorial Communities (MICT) and Jude Saint-Natus, Director General of MICT, met with representatives of Associations of Boards of communal sections (CASEC) and of Communal Sections (ASEC), gathering 570 communal sections of the country.

This meeting follows a first meeting that took place last week with the local authorities. The discussions focused on the functioning of local authorities, the need to supervise and support the CASEC and ASEC pending the organization of elections for the administrations of communal sections.

In his speech, Privert spoke of the need for the State to assist local authorities in order to meet the basic needs of the population. He asked the different CASEC and ASEC to take inventory of their different needs as well as materials available to them to facilitate effective management of State resources.

Recall that before the meeting, Jocelerme Privert had chaired the first symposium of mayors https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-18022-haiti-politic-launch-of-forum-initiation-of-new-mayors.html
