On behalf of the Justice and Development Party, MP Abdullah Bouano delivered a passionate yet measured speech during the debate on the 2027 Finance Bill in the House of Representatives’ Finance Committee, in which he questioned the government’s narrative regarding the decline in inflation, emphasizing that living conditions and official indicators reflect a continuous rise in the prices of basic commodities such as meat, vegetables, fuel, and transportation. He also criticized the policy of granting import exemptions for livestock without price caps, characterizing it as a rent-seeking measure that stifles competition, and calling for the adoption of practical alternatives, such as opening direct imports from neighboring countries and establishing border slaughterhouses to counter the greed of suppliers and monopolistic companies.

On the issue of governance and social justice, Bouano called for the creation of a unified, modern digital platform to display prices and details of public contracts to end vast disparities and ensure transparency, rather than relying on traditional tax audit methods. He also addressed the issue of regional disparities and territorial justice, citing the marginalization of major cities such as Meknes from public investment in favor of other cities, and stressing the need for a comprehensive national review to ensure the equitable distribution of resources and development opportunities across all regions of the Kingdom.
