Transparency Morocco addresses election conflicts

The Moroccan Association for Anti-Corruption “Transparency Morocco” sent a letter to the leaders of the political parties represented in Parliament. The letter focused on three important questions regarding their stance on legal reforms and anti-corruption measures in preparation for the legislative elections scheduled for September 23, 2026. The association inquired about the parties' intentions to review the new provisions of Articles 3 and 7 of Law No. 03.23 related to the criminal procedure, especially their impact on reducing the powers of public prosecution and undermining the role of civil society in fighting corruption. It also asked about the parties' positions on criminalizing illicit enrichment through mandatory asset declarations, and to what extent they plan to include such criminalization in the criminal code or to pass a separate law, along with a proposed timeline for these measures. Finally, the association sought information on the legislative and regulatory mechanisms that the parties intend to adopt to organize conflicts of interest and prevent deviations and dishonest practices. In conclusion, “Transparency Morocco” committed to publishing the parties' responses during the election campaign to raise public awareness and promote an open discussion on electoral integrity and anti-corruption efforts.
