The Finance and Economic Development Committee of Morocco's House of Representatives has begun examining the draft budget law for 2027. As reported by the news outlet Hespress, the government's plan foresees total public investments amounting to 400 billion dirhams, alongside measures aimed at health, social protection, and education, with the programmatic goal of containing the budget deficit to three percent of gross domestic product.

During the debate, lawmaker Aziz Lebbar highlighted the strong existing territorial disparities, estimating, according to party data, that approximately seventy percent of national economic activities and investments remain concentrated along the Tangier-Rabat-Casablanca axis. The parliamentarian urged targeted interventions for excluded areas, such as the industrial area of Fez, calling for a drastic reduction in bureaucratic timeframes for project approvals by regional investment centers.

Further concerns addressed the public health sector. Lawmaker Salma Al Alami raised doubts about plans to recruit medical personnel from abroad without a simultaneous improvement in working conditions and pay aimed at curbing the emigration of young Moroccan graduates. According to the parliamentarian, attracting foreign medical professionals does not guarantee an adequate solution to the structural shortages in rural areas.

Finally, opposition representatives questioned the real impact of income tax cuts on the most disadvantaged households, which often fall below the taxable threshold or are employed in the informal economy. The macroeconomic framework of the financial law projects growth of 3.7 percent in 2027, with targeted inflation at 1.5 percent and a forecast cereal harvest of 70 million quintals.
