Acknowledging the critical importance of health and education, Madbouly announced the appointment of dedicated Deputy Prime Ministers to oversee these sectors. This move underscores the government’s commitment to enhancing human development and fostering a skilled workforce.
To ensure effective implementation and progress tracking, the Egyptian Prime Minister outlined plans for regular meetings with ministerial groups, led by either Deputy Prime Ministers or himself. These meetings will serve as platforms to discuss strategies, set clear objectives, and monitor progress.
