• The new order n ° 2024-1085/PRES/PM/MEF of September 17, 2024 lists the general services of public officials.
It was in June 2024 that the Council of Ministers adopted an order bringing back the salary regulation for the special services of public administration agents. Explanations from the Minister of Economy, Finance and Prospects, Aboubakar Nacanabo, at the time, this order established a salary within the framework of special services that do not fall under the duties of current representatives. This revocation was decided by the Council of Ministers on June 12, 2024, as a result of the misuse and abuse noted in the implementation of these orders and the desire to rationalize the operating costs of the State and its branches. A few months after this decision, the Ministry of Economy submitted a new order to the Council of Ministers defining the provisions for covering the special services of public officials and resource persons. It was 14 August 2024. From the Council’s report, it seems that “this order brings new innovations, compared to the provisions of the two orders that previously governed the same matter. These include, among others: – reducing the number of activities that may depend on wages; – definition of the legal basis for the care of non-administrative persons; – better management of official event organizing committees. The adoption of this order makes it possible to ensure a better operation of public administrations and contribute to the reduction of the operational costs of the State and its numbers,” we read.
