Decree No. 9317 establishes the National Greenhouse Gas Reduction Programme through energy efficiency in the building sector. The overall objective of the programme is to develop energy-efficient practices in the Buildings buildings construction sector. 
The programme aims in particular at: 
- increasing the number of energy efficient building construction projects using innovative building materials and practices; 
- developing standards for energy efficient construction; 
- increasing the number of construction professionals integrating the energy efficient building standards in their project design and construction process. 
 
The ‘Ministerial Decree No. 9318 on the establishment, composition and functioning of the National Programme Steering Committee for Greenhouse Gas reduction through energy efficiency in the building sector' (17/06/2013) then creates the inter-ministerial National Programme Steering Committee for Greenhouse Gas reduction through energy efficiency in the building sector and of the Project \Production of thermal insulating materials based on typha' (cattail - type of plant with good insulation properties and high yields).
