Mrs. Zineb El Adaoui, First President of the Court of Accounts, chaired the formal swearing-in hearing for a cohort of 30 audit court judges on July 21, 2026, following their appointment by His Majesty King Mohammed VI may Allah assist him. The hearing was held in the presence of Mr. Brahim Ben Bih, the King\u2019s Attorney General at the Court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These appointments are part of the special royal solicitude that His Majesty has incessantly given to the supreme oversight system, thereby bolstering the constitutional role of Audit Courts and empowering them to fulfil their public finance oversight mandate and safeguarding the principles and values of good governance, transparency and accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the swearing-in of new judges, the First President gave an orientation address in which she highlighted the symbolic nature and the significance of this formal hearing, which is held on the eve of the Moroccan people\u2019s celebration of the 27th anniversary of His Majesty the King\u2019s accession to the Throne of His Glorious Ancestors, may Allah assist him. She recalled the tenets of the High Royal Trust, which require a profound sense of responsibility, loyalty and commitment to effectively fulfil the mandate conferred upon Audit Courts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also stressed that upholding the institutional identity of Audit Courts is a collective responsibility that falls to each judge of these courts. This requires, on the one hand, strict adherence to the fundamental principles and values that underpin audit court work, especially requirements of integrity, probity, professionalism, objectivity, impartiality and neutrality. On the other hand, it requires acquiring new competencies and skills that enable the audit judge to be a contributor to development, creating value and making an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The King\u2019s Attorney General at the Court of Accounts said that the swearing-in is not a simple formality but a legal and ethical commitment that compels each judge of these Audit Courts to exercise his or her functions with all integrity, independence and impartiality throughout his or her professional career. He underscored that while belonging to Audit Courts confers a privilege and a prestigious and honorific status with a set of rights and guarantees under the general principles of law and the Code of Audit Courts as well as the Code of Ethics for judges of Audit Courts, this, in return, puts on the audit judge a heavy responsibility and professional and ethical duties that should be scrupulously observed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sworn-in judges include three judges of exceptional grade, recruited through direct selection, and 27 judges of the second grade, appointed after they completed their initial training (theory and practice) and passing the qualifying professional exam. Sworn in, the latter fulfilled the capacity of audit judge, which confers upon them the right to exercise all functions of Audit Courts pursuant to the constitutional and legal principles that govern their scope of action. The appointment of this new cohort of judges is a key milestone in reinforcing the human capital of the Court of Accounts and Regional Courts of Accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the sidelines of this formal hearing, the First President awarded Royal decorations to a group of judges and employees, granted by His Majesty the King Mohammed VI, may Allah assist him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
