In a speech at the start of a congress of Cuba's Communist Party, Raul Castro said he wants top government positions to be limited to two five-year terms and has promised to rejuvenate the government. He said that the limit would apply to "the current president of the Council of the State and his ministers." There were also plans to reduce the role of the government in the economy and promote private business. Education and healthcare would still be free but subsidies of basic goods would be removed and social spending would be "rationalized."
