“Beyond the impact for users, agents will see their tasks lightened, thanks to the automated processing of requests. In this way they will be able to focus their time on supporting the families that need it the most”, they emphasize from the Prime Minister’s office. For the current school year, 739,181 high school students and 531,594 public education high school students benefit from scholarships.
Education Minister Pap Ndiaye hailed a “social measure that (he) is particularly close to his heart” in a tweet. The Prime Minister wished in particular, on the occasion of this CITP, that the public services that request by telephone can call the French again.
The government intends to improve the quality of public services at 10 key moments in the life of the French, starting this year for five of them: “I am becoming a student, I am renovating my accommodation, I am losing someone dear, I come back from abroad, I establish my identity or that of my loved ones”.
