00:00The increase in the price of butane gas is not in the order of the day of the government.
00:18These are the words of the minister, delegated to the Minister of Economy and Finance, in
00:23charge of the Fosilja budget, in response to an oral question on the impact of the increase
00:28in the price of butane gas.
00:30The minister indicated that the government annually devotes more than 15 billion dirhams
00:36to the subvention of the consumption of butane gas, a support mainly aimed at the most
00:42disadvantaged categories that need it the most.
00:45The minister also noted that the most vulnerable categories, 20% of the population, the poorest
00:51only benefit from 14% of this support, while the most vulnerable categories are
00:57the richest 20% benefit from 27%, which is twice what the most disadvantaged categories
01:04perceive.
01:05And the minister, delegated to the Minister of Economy and Finance, in charge of the Fosilja
01:12budget, has also come back on the measures introduced to fight against tax evasion,
01:18such as the generalization of revenue at the source and the reinforcement of tax control
01:23mechanisms.
01:24According to him, these measures have allowed to perceive 17.77 billion dirhams the previous year,
01:32against 14.06 billion dirhams in 2023, an increase of 26.4%.
01:39The minister also expressed himself on the outcome of the voluntary regularization operation
01:45of the fiscal situation, which reached 127 billion dirhams.
01:49He indicated that 77 billion dirhams have been declared via bank statements, 48 billion
01:56dirhams through direct statements to the General Directorate of Taxes and 2 billion dirhams
02:02in the name of assets and holdings abroad.
02:06In Europe, industrial production in Italy recorded a slight increase of 0.3% in November
02:15over a month after remaining stable in October.
02:19According to the National Institute of Statistics, on average, in the period from September to November,
02:24industrial production has fallen by 0.4% compared to the previous three months.
02:29The energy sector saw its production increase in November by 1.6% over a month,
02:36consumer goods by 0.9% and intermediary goods by 0.3%.
02:42On the other hand, equipment goods have fallen by 0.6%.
02:46Compared to November 2023, industrial production has fallen by 1.5% given the corrected effects of the calendar year.
02:57International economic news this Wednesday is also the sales of Volkswagen Group cars,
03:04which fell in 2024.
03:06The second world manufacturer behind Toyota delivered a little more than 9 million vehicles
03:11worldwide the previous year, a 2.3% drop over a year.
03:16The German manufacturer is particularly at fault on one of its main markets, China,
03:22where sales have dropped by 10% for the group and by 8.3% for the brand.
03:27In the European region, where the conjuncture slows down, group sales have stagnated with a drop of 2% in Germany.
03:35However, they increase by 6.4% in North America and 14.7% in South America.
03:43Note that the first European manufacturer will remove more than 35,000 jobs by 2030
03:50and strongly reduce its production capacity in Germany without closure of sites.
03:57And then at the international, a few days after the investment of the skeptical climate of Donald Trump at the White House,
04:04the developed countries of the OECD have failed to find an agreement on the progressive recovery
04:09of public measures of financial support to fossil industries.
04:13The objective of the discussions, which started in mid-November, was to gradually ban support for the fossil industry
04:20through guarantees or loans, targeting in particular the aid of trade and export agencies in favor of the oil and gas industry.
04:28This project, supported by the European Union, the United Kingdom and Canada, is the subject of opposition from the United States,
04:35according to the climate NGOs, because the trade and export agencies are the largest public financiers of the fossil energy industry,
04:43having in particular allowed the emergence of liquefied natural gas through the contribution to more than 80%
04:50of new gas export terminal projects between 2012 and 2022.
04:55We come to the end of our newspaper. Thank you for your loyalty. See you soon on our antenna.
