Power, projects and the next stage

This week’s review follows power, big projects and the next steps in Mauritania’s economy. The procedure for Nouakchott’s eastern electricity substation moved forward after a procurement challenge was rejected on 14 October. Cabinet approved bills to ratify financing for three programmes worth about €86.9 million in education, social protection and digital services. Aura Energy’s Tiris uranium project targets a December investment decision, and the European Union fishing-access protocol expires on 14 November.

The full review also covers mining, energy, fuel supply, transport, trade, jobs, the cabinet and senior appointments, and open opportunities for international companies.
