PM Conille calls cabinet retreat to plan government actions and establish coordinated framework and roadmap

PORT-AU-PRINCE— Haitian Prime Minister Garry Conille has invited his ministry cabinet to a retreat that he will organize to finalize the framework for the transition government’s action plan and lay out the roadmap for effective results. This retreat also aims to facilitate the introduction of ministers into their new roles, particularly those linked to budgetary management activities, accountability and governmental cohesion.

In a circular letter sent out by the Prime Minister’s Office on June 17, Conille indicates that the forum will be an opportunity for the government to plan its coordination, rectify certain rules that all ministers must adhere to and revisit goals and objectives set forth by the Transitional Presidential Council (TPC) while making sure everyone is on the same page. 

“Your commitment to the service of your country honors you and at the same time, it obliges you to succeed for the good of our nation,” Prime Minister Conille wrote in the circular letter. “The difficulties and expectations are immense, but your dedication is boundless,” he added.

An official date for the retreat has yet to be announced, but the letter indicates that the prime minister will gather with the ministers soon. Prime Minister Conille emphasized the importance of active participation from all ministers to ensure the retreat’s success and the effective implementation of the government’s action plan.

Thus, Conille asked the ministers to carry out a physical inventory, even briefly, providing information on the various equipment, materials and buildings available to the ministries. This is to establish needs rationally within the framework of the amended budget, he said in the circular letter.

Additionally, Conille reminded his ministry cabinet about certain agreed-upon restrictions that must be enforced for the transition’s success. Among those restrictions, he mentioned limits on public speaking, sobriety in the management of public affairs, limitations and requirements on travel, rational management of public resources and prohibition of increased personnel in the public administration unless deemed urgently necessary.

“Ministers are required not to consider any administrative measures regarding the addition of personnel or internal movements having a budgetary or strategic impact unless there is an urgent, justifiable need,” Conille wrote.
