Morocco's Committee on the Interior, Local Authorities, Housing, and Urban Policy has approved two significant draft laws. The first, Law No. 64.23, establishes regional agencies for urban planning and housing. This law aims to bolster the core functions of these agencies in urban planning, rural development, investment support, and land supply. It also seeks to diversify their funding sources and improve access to housing while combating substandard living conditions.
The second approved law, Law No. 34.21, modifies and supplements Law No. 25.90 on real estate subdivisions and housing groups. This legislation intends to offer practical legal solutions to pressing issues in real estate development and division. It aims to stimulate investment in real estate subdivisions and housing projects by simplifying procedures and reducing timelines, aligning with broader efforts to streamline administrative processes.
