The Government made its return to work after the long summer holidays on Wednesday, September 5, with a full agenda for its first Council.

Much of the discussion centred on concerns expressed by the elected National Council, in view of forthcoming meetings dedicated to debating the 2018 Budget. Since its election seven months ago the present National Council has made its views known in a forthright manner on a wide range of issues.

In a press statement, the Government said: “On all these issues, the Government and the National Council share the desire to define the best solutions for Monaco.”
