Gouvernement du Bénin en Conseil des Ministres, @: ssggouvbenin
I- Regulatory measures.
Establishment of the Monts Kouffè – Wari Maro National Park.
The Government has defined a policy for conserving wooded natural areas in various parts of the national territory to create a network of protected zones. In this context, a feasibility study was commissioned on the reclassification of the classified forests of Monts Kouffè and Wari Maro as a national park.
The study found that this forest complex is still well preserved and has both floral and faunal resources that justify this status; and that the local populations, dignitaries as well as the local authorities of the neighboring communes and villages support this project.
Therefore, by adopting this decree, the Council instructed the minister in charge of Sustainable Development to ensure its prompt implementation.
II- Communications.
II-1. Acquisition of various equipment for the benefit of hospital centers.
This operation aims to strengthen the technical facilities of the medical imaging units of the Hubert Koutoukou MAGA National University Hospital Center and the Borgou Departmental University Hospital Center by providing them with computer servers, reading consoles and image post-processing consoles, disc-burning robots, negatoscopes, as well as a set of videoconferencing equipment.
The objective is to modernize the management and dissemination of medical data, secure the workflow of examinations and, above all, guarantee access to results within a reduced timeframe. In doing so, the quality of patient care and the performance of the hospital technical platform should be optimized.
The Council therefore decided to contract with a specialized consortium for the acquisition and commissioning of this equipment.
