The Egyptian parliament has approved a cabinet reshuffle in Prime Minister Mustafa Madbouly’s government, which includes 13 portfolios.
The amendments include Ministers of Health, Education, Irrigation, Immigration, Higher Education, Tourism and Antiquities, Trade and Industry, Civil Aviation, Manpower, Culture, Local Development, General Business Sector and Military Production.
The House of Representatives held an extraordinary session today, Saturday, at the request of Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi to consider a proposal to reshuffle the Cabinet as Parliament was on parliamentary recess.
In a post posted on his personal Facebook page, the President of Egypt said, “Today, I convened the Parliament to discuss the revision of several ministerial portfolios that were agreed to be changed after consultation with the Prime Minister.”
