Tunisia parliament set for vote on new govt
 

TUNIS: Tunisia’s premier-designate called for "sacrifices" on Friday as parliament convened to vote on a cabinet line-up he has proposed to tackle pressing eco**mic and security challenges.

It is likely that a majority of parliament’s 217 members will vote in favour of the line-up, making Youssef Chahed, at 40, the country’s youngest prime minister since it won independence from France in 1956.

But as Tunisia continues to find its bearings after the 2011 uprising that toppled longtime dictator Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, Chahed would also be the **rth African nation’s sixth premier in less than six years. The prime minister-designate addressed the assembly on Friday morning ahead of the vote of confidence, which is **t expected before 2000 GMT.
