During a public session held on Friday, December 6, 2024, Mohamed Chouki, a member of the National Rally of Independents (RNI), delivered a speech explaining the party’s position on the 2025 Finance Bill. Chouki provided a detailed analysis of the reasons that led the RNI team to vote in favor of the bill in its current form after the second reading.
In his remarks, Chouki praised the government’s bold financial measures included in the bill, particularly the full exemption from income tax for retirees. He described this step as an unprecedented achievement, especially considering the significant financial effort dedicated to this measure.
Chouki emphasized that the RNI team’s vote in favor of the bill reflects their appreciation of the government’s efforts since its inauguration in October 2021. He noted that the government has followed a clear reform trajectory in tax policy, starting with corporate tax reform, moving to value-added tax (VAT) adjustments, and now addressing income tax reforms in the 2025 Finance Bill. These reforms, according to Chouki, will significantly improve the conditions of workers and employees.
He also highlighted the government’s commitment to implementing the social protection program agreed upon with Parliament. This includes initiatives aimed at improving the situation of retirees and promoting social cohesion. Chouki commended the government’s dedication to strengthening the purchasing power of vulnerable groups and safeguarding their dignity through tangible measures.
In addition, Chouki lauded amendments introduced by the House of Councillors that aim to enhance the position of Moroccan enterprises. He specifically mentioned adjustments facilitating the transfer of tangible, intangible, and financial assets, which will provide businesses with greater clarity regarding their economic activities and bolster their investment capacity. This, he noted, will benefit the national economy and create job opportunities.
In conclusion, Chouki affirmed the RNI team’s proud and confident vote in favor of the 2025 Finance Bill. He expressed full awareness of the government’s ongoing efforts to strengthen the dual pillars of labor and capital for achieving sustainable development. These efforts, he emphasized, aim to support both employees and enterprises, contributing to a prosperous future for all.
