Feno Ralambomanana, President of the Special Delegation (PDS) of Antananarivo, announced that the Antananarivo Urban Municipality (CUA) has set the housing allowance for its employees at 50,000 ariary, a figure corresponding to the municipality's current financial capacity. This clarification came in response to staff demands, with Ralambomanana indicating that discussions have already begun with workers on this matter. The Ministry of Interior and Decentralization had stated that payment of this allowance depends on each local authority's financial capacity, with amounts ranging from 14,000 to 200,000 ariary per month. For CUA employees, the total expected monthly amount would be 64,000 ariary—the 50,000 ariary announced by the municipality plus the 14,000 ariary previously received—according to union president Jean François Raharijaona. The union has not yet indicated whether it accepts this proposal, but is demanding payment of back pay since July, arguing that employees should have received this allowance from that period. The PDS acknowledges the principle of back pay but states it must be staggered due to the municipality's budget constraints, with August salaries already being processed. The union intends to continue advocating for employees, potentially raising these demands at general assemblies or specific meetings with the PDS.
