Salaheddine Mezoaur said, at the House of Advisors' question time on Tuesday, the government adopted a comprehensive development approach to ensure balance between the Kingdom's regions.

    He said this approach revolves around reinforcing solidarity and cohesion at social and spatial levels to ensure a better distribution of the benefits of growth and improve human development indicators, particularly in rural and mountain areas.

    He noted that 20 billion dirhams were allotted to these areas for 2010 to implement structuring projects aimed at promoting the potential of all regions, attracting investments and creating jobs.
