Morocco’s General Inspectorate of Territorial Administration has launched an investigation into potential irregularities surrounding public procurement contracts. The probe focuses on allegations of systematic waste and mismanagement within local authorities across the Casablanca-Settat, Rabat-Salé-Kenitra, and Marrakech-Safi regions. The investigation was prompted by recent reports that raised concerns among oversight bodies. Inspection teams, already conducting ongoing audits of local administrations, have redirected their focus to examine these specific contract discrepancies. Details regarding the nature of the reported “waste” remain limited, but the investigation signals a commitment to accountability in public spending. The General Inspectorate is expected to deliver findings and recommendations following the completion of the audit. Hespress, a Moroccan online newspaper, first reported the development.
