Many essential corruption safeguards and accountability mechanisms are missing in Morocco's overall governance and anti-corruption framework. Executive accountability, for example, is extremely weak in a country where "the King is sacred […] and the Prime Minister is accountable only to the King or parliament." Other areas of weakness include the complete absence of whistle-blowing protections, limited citizen access to information, no election oversight, poor regulations governing the budgetary process, and ineffective rule of law.
