(Haiti Libre) -

Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe has confirmed, he will make his presentation of General Policy Tuesday in the Senate. He gives us some information about his General Policy and a few innovations for his future government "We are working hard, we sleep very little, we have a team of several experts and professionals working on a General Policy, which will focused among the population, which will meet the main points of the country's problems, and will come up with concrete solutions [...] The General Policy will be focused on the theme of the fight against extreme poverty [...] All government programs, will focus on this fight.

We are evaluating the different ministries, to see which ministry works more than another, which minister is the most powerful [...] The most important is that first, we have a government of openness where everyone is involved, and secondly a government who has above all, the people in his heart [...]

One of the changes that we will see also is that in our spirit of transparency, we will put for example, a part of the Council of Ministers live on tv, and it will be decentralized. All the councils will not be done in Port-au-Prince, but also in the provinces. During these Council of Ministers, elected officials and notables of the area can express themselves [...] We have for the next 5 months, about 14 billion gourdes [± $335 million] in the investment budget, and of course we will focus it, as we are already doing, on the promises already made [...] We will not put things into studies or in prospects. We will put concrete things, things that will land on which we agreed, where we can give a timetable for implementation [...]"
