Final list of new ministers delayed for elections: Ganzouri

By YOUM7 STAFF - Translated by NOURHAN MAGDI
CAIRO: Prime Minister-Designate Kamal el-Ganzouri said he cannot announce the final names of the new ministers two days before the appointment of the new Interior Minister.

Ganzouri said he mentioned before that the announcement of the new ministers’ names is delayed due to the parliamentary elections, because Prime Minister Essam Sharaf’s government resigned two days before elections began.

“It can be announced amid the elections and also due to the repeated meetings with the political trends and parties,” said Ganzouri.

He refused to answer questions about his meeting with Maj. Gen. Mamdouh Shahin, a member of Egypt’s ruling military council.

Concerning Youm7’s question about the timeline of amending the clause in the constitutional declaration to provide Ganzouri with full executive authorities, he said, “We’ll see soon.”
