NNA – Caretaker Minister of Interior and Municipalities, Judge Bassam Mawlawi, on Thursday addressed two letters to governors across Lebanon requesting the following:
ldquo;First, instructing each Lebanese districtrsquo;s Qaim Maqam to circulate to municipalities and mukhtars a decision strictly prohibiting the acceptance of any type of grant addressed to displaced Syrians, whether conditional or unconditional, so that such grants wouldnrsquo;t affect the displaced Syriansrsquo; stay in Lebanon and hinder their safe return to their country.
Second, instructing each districtrsquo;s Qaim Maqam to circulate to municipalities and mukhtars the need to report periodically mdash; every fifteen days mdash; as per the measures mentioned in Circular 74 mdash; regarding the implementation of the Council of Ministersrsquo; decisions on the Syrian displacement crisis.rdquo;
