Formation of Management Committee for Great Man-Made River Authority - Jabal al-Hasawnah System

30-04-2022·مجلس الوزراء·الاقتصاد
Analysis
Summary

The Council of Ministers appointed an 8-member management committee, chaired by Hashim Salem Ghabbar, to oversee the Great Man-Made River Water Investment Authority's Jabal al-Hasawnah al-Jufrah system. This committee assumes operational control of this specific segment of Libya's water infrastructure. The decision took immediate effect from April 30, 2022.

Business Implication

For companies in water infrastructure, engineering services, or agricultural investment, this signals active governance of a critical water system serving Libya's agricultural belt. Foreign contractors previously engaged with this GMMR segment should identify and engage the new management structure for ongoing or future contracts. Water-intensive industries relying on this system now have a defined decision-making body for access, pricing, and service issues.

Key Provisions
Establishment of 8-member management committee under chairmanship of Hashim Salem Ghabbar with full authority over Jabal al-Hasawnah al-Jufrah water investment operations
Committee derives authority from 1995 decision establishing the Water Investment Authority and foundational 1983 GMMR laws
Immediate effectiveness from April 30, 2022, requiring all entities to engage with newly constituted management structure
