19. There is also a challenge of involving other political parties and religious organizations in the process and that it is necessary to have both parties seating at a table within the spirit of dialogue, as to find a platform to deal once for all, with all threats such as potential demonstrations at national level as well as that of return to war. For this, it may be necessary for the parties to revisit the terms of the GPA to identify the issues that were not implemented and to verify if it is justifiable to have armed forces on the side of RENAMO and disarm them as well as find ways on how to carry out the disarmament process without provoking violent reactions and unforeseeable consequences for the country and the population. 20. In relation to the recommendation by the APR Panel to “not politicise the State”, in accordance to the letter sent by the Government to the APRM National Forum the Government ensures that “all factors that may put in danger peace and stability in Mozambique were removed and that separation was made between party activities and State institutions” (MFP: Letter N° 20, de 29/02/2012). 21. This source also indicates, as an example, that the Government in its process of recruiting, promotion and progress in the professional careers observe strictly the General Statute for Civil Servants and State Agent (EGFAE) and Career System. Recruitment is made based on public tenders (Article 9 and 10 of the Career System, Decree N°. 54/2009, of 8 September) which is assessed by a jury that is composed of officers of the institution who are responsible for assessment of the candidates, following only and exclusively transparent criteria and impartiality and never takes into account party affiliation. 22. In the same context, the letter argues that promotions to senior categories or positions of leadership or directorship is done following the Career Professional Qualifier, Categories and Directorship, Leadership and Trust Positions in force in the State and that sets job descriptions and technical requirements. 23. Notwithstanding these clarifications, there is a public perception that FRELIMO Party maintains party cells in public sector institutions and this contributes to the politicising the Sate. This perception has been considered by various sectors of society, opposition political parties and some international donors as a proof of politicising of State. This situation has contributed for more and more discussions over situations of inequality among public servants who are not members or sympathisers of the party in power who consider that legislation on public service is not being observed when they are involved thus creating difficulties for the maintenance of their employment, promotion or appointment for positions of leadership and directorship. 24. It should be stressed that the issue of politicising the States must not be simply limited to the issue of perception of existence or not of party cells in State organizations. It is a wide covering problem. The building of the Mozambican State Apparatus resulted from the “break up” of the colonial Apparatus and the culture of its construction was based on Party/State practice in which political trust was a fundamental factor. Having this culture in mind, the simplified and machiavellian idea of being “ours or not ours” is impregnated in the practices in such a way that a simple change of regulations does not immediately eliminate this practice. 21
