Decree on Public-Administration Subsidies Requiring Beneficiary Disclosure
- Every public entity granting a subsidy must disclose the full beneficiary list within 30 days of the grant.
- Disclosure must include the beneficiary's CIN and NIF (individuals) or NIF (legal entities), the amount, and project details.
- Publication is centralized through the Presidency's Secretary General in the official gazette Le Moniteur.
- The measure is explicitly grounded in the 2014 anti-corruption law's transparency principles.
- No monetary threshold is set — the disclosure duty applies to subsidies of any size.
Citing the executive's obligation to render sincere and faithful accounts of state finances, the 2014 anti-corruption law and the imperative of transparency in the management of public funds, this arrêté (Article 1) obliges all public bodies granting one or more subsidies to submit, within 30 days of the grant, the full list of beneficiary persons or entities to the Presidency's Secretary General, who publishes the list in Le Moniteur. Article 2 specifies the required content for each subsidy: beneficiary name(s), National Identification Card (CIN) and Fiscal Identification Number (NIF) for individuals, the NIF for corporate beneficiaries, the subsidy amount, the nature of the subsidized project where applicable, planned start/end dates and locations, and any other information facilitating transparency in the management of public funds. It is grounded on the report of the Minister of Economy and Finance and Council of Ministers deliberation.
