FOREWORD
Taking into account the macroeconomic context marked in particular by the Russia-Ukraine war, the decline in exchange rates, and inflationary trends, the President of the Republic of Cameroon, through Circular No. 1 of 30 August 2023 relating to the preparation of the State budget for the 2024 financial year, placed the 2024 budget under the prism of a socio-economic impact budget.
In this context, public action has sought to bring about the resumption of economic dynamics by completing committed projects, prioritizing expenditure, and strengthening inclusive and participatory growth. In this regard, one of the main thrusts is to continue the reconstruction of the North-West and South-West Regions, enhance social cohesion, and forge ahead with the decentralization process.
Thus, the State will continue to improve the investment resource quantum allocated to RLAs. It covers many sectors, including road infrastructure, water and sanitation, urbanization/engineering, education, energy, and electrification, production infrastructure and community buildings, equipment, social welfare, and health.
The harmonious and efficient implementation of projects financed by these resources stems from better involvement of the population in the public procurement planning and execution chain. Furthermore, providing information on the actions undertaken in RLAs, in particular, this Project Logbook of RLAs aims to improve the involvement of sectoral government services in the advisory support to be provided to local authorities, as well as that of neighbourhood or village committees, to ensure that the needs of the grassroots population are taken into account and projects are properly implemented.
Finally, I urge executive heads to strictly comply with the budgetary calendar, bearing in mind that the deadlines for commitments and payment scheduling are 30 November and 31 December 2024, respectively.
The Minister of Decentralization and Local Development
Georges ELANGA OBAM
