		After the death of the authoritarian King Hassan II in 1999 after a 38-year rule and the accession of his son, Mohammed VI, some changes towards a constitutional monarchy were made.
		Mohammed was seen as a moderniser and Hassan had paved the way for his accession by an opening to the exiled opposition that culminated in the appointment of Socialist leader Abderrahmane El-Youssoufi as premier in March 1998 after a relatively free election in November 1997.
		The head of government is Prime Minister Abderrahmane El-Youssoufi, who took office in March 1998.

		Although Hassan kept the last word and kept Driss Basri, the powerful interior minister, in the government, it was seen as a move to build credible institutions that could survive the late king and facilitate the job for his son.
		The prime minister spent his first year in office building trust with Hassan and his son to ensure that the succession is one in which he and his party, the Socialist Union of Popular Forces, play a key role and make Morocco's experiment with democracy irreversible.
		Although the king's focus, like that of Mr Youssoufi, will have to be on more economic and social reform, a Dollars 20bn (œ12.7bn) debt and a corrupt and inefficient bureaucracy strangle Morocco's budget, leaving decision-makers with little financial room to manoeuvre.

		RABAT -- Morocco will stay out of the African Union (AU) if the self-proclaimed Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) becomes a member, Prime Minister Abderrahmane Youssoufi said in an interview published yesterday.
		The SADR was formed by the Polisario Front, an independence movement which took up arms in the Western Sahara after Spanish settlers left in 1975 and the Moroccan kingdom annexed it, claiming a historical right to it.
		Youssoufi said the AU, formed to replace the Organisation of African Unity (OAU), which held its final summit this month in Zambia, "has repeated the original mistake of the OAU by allowing this puppet state to sign the constituent act and then to ratify it".

		Since his appointment last year, the Moroccan Prime Minister, Abderrahmane Youssoufi, himself a former human rights lawyer, had made civil liberties a key plank of his reform programme.
		He had stressed that Morocco would be the first Arab state to host an Amnesty conference, and he said the kingdom aimed to become the most liberal and democratic state in the Arab world.
		Already, Mr Youssoufi's long-term rival, Interior Minister Driss Basri, appears to be filling much of the vacuum, and it is from his ministry that the order to cancel the Amnesty conference appears to have come.

		The sudden passing of King Hassan II, on July 23 after a 38-year reign, and the ascension to the throne of his son and heir, King Mohammed VI, has hastened the challenge to the new King and the still-young government of Prime Minister Abderrahmane Youssoufi to consolidate and institutionalize democratic reforms.
		However, reforms initiated by King Hassan II, particularly the installation in March 1998 of the democratically-elected government headed by opposition leader and former exile Youssoufi, have allowed for a smooth transition which points to continued stability and hopes for widening economic prosperity.
		In a country struggling to bridge the gaps between rural and urban areas in health, education and access to social services, this fund provides the government and King Mohammed VI immediate means to focus on improvements in the quality of rural life.
