Civil Administration Reform – 2009

The full restoration of state administration, unification of the divided country, and the delivery of public services were still issues in 2009. Parties had reached a fourth supplementary agreement on 22 December 2008, asking for the total restoration of state administration, including judicial and fiscal administration, and the delivery of goods and services by 15 January 2009.¹ The effective delivery of public services had continuously been interrupted since 2007, as those working in education, civil administration, and health services were engaged in strikes.² As of early March, judges and public prosecutors were nominated and redeployed.³ The same report also suggested that the reunification of the Ivory Coast did not happen.
