Each year, the President of the Executive Council reports to the Assembly, in a special report, on the situation of the local authority, the state of implementation of the regional development plan and the activity and financing of its various departments and the bodies dependent on them. The report also sets out the state of implementation of the decisions taken by the Assembly and the financial situation of the local authority. The report is submitted to the Martinique Economic, Social, Environmental, Cultural and Educational Council for its opinion before being examined by the Assembly. This report gives rise to a debate.
