The prefect of Mayotte decided to dissolve the General Assembly of the Chamber of Trades and Crafts (CMA) this Monday and to set up a provisional commission. It is the culmination of an attempt to straighten out the structure by a steering committee made up of state representatives, which failed.
The CMA was doing well until the October 2021 elections, but was struggling to absorb the loss of subsidies. The transition to European funding in 2014 forcing the Chambers to seek out their training to generate revenue left them KO. The butchery section which had been launched by the CMA was the most emblematic of the abandonments.
Since 2020, no more initial budget has been voted on at the CMA of Mayotte, therefore under the previous team, underlines the prefecture which recalls having set up for more than a year, a steering committee, composed of the president of the CMA, Radhia Oumari, SGAR of the prefecture, DEETS, Public Finance, CMA France, etc. It followed the audit of the General Economic and Financial Control (CGEFI), whose report delivered on June 23, 2022 highlighted a significant financial imbalance and issued 45 recommendations. An amount of 2.5 million euros of debt was mentioned, but the prefecture deplores the absence of “presentation of a detailed and reliable statement of the debt”.
“They don’t like being repeated twice”
Resistance got the better of the CMA of Mayotte
All that remained was to apply the recommendations, the skills being there. However, if “progress is noted on the first three steering committees”, underlines the prefecture, the dynamic subsequently slows down, “non-compliance with statutory, legislative and regulatory provisions”, no presentation of budget or account administrative, no more than the original budget. Worse, the president apparently does as she pleases, still according to the order of dissolution of the prefecture, since she does not respect the regulatory conditions for sending notices to the general assembly, which she does vote on the 2021 accounts on July 31, 2023, even though it was informed of their non-certification by the auditor, etc.
A stubbornness which will get the better of the payment of salaries for this year 2023. A pattern which is furiously reminiscent of that of the water and sanitation union of the Bavi era, where the prefecture did not whistle the end of recess in time. This is not the case this time, since in the decree of November 21, the prefecture pronounces the dissolution of the general assembly of the CMA.
The Chamber will now be managed by a provisional commission, composed of Sylvain Arnaux, jeweler, Abdou Faoudi, plumber, Alexandra Clokers, stylist and Salim Maoulida, electrician. This commission will soon appoint a president and a treasurer.
