The decision sets the stage for the submission of the draft
to the Legislative and Opinion Bureau, which will oversee the necessary
procedures for its issuance.
The Cabinet granted the draft law the status of urgency.
Purpose of the draft lawThe primary objective of the proposed law is to regain
jurisdiction over the resolution of common property disputes, shifting it away
from administrative committees within the land registration directorates.
This move is based on the practical implementation of the
Real Estate Property Law. It was revealed that obstacles arose when
administrative committees were entrusted with this jurisdiction.
Empowering the Cabinet
According to the draft law, the Cabinet will be authorized,
upon recommendation from a committee composed of multiple ministers, to approve
the allocation of land parcels from state properties.
These parcels may be allocated to public investment funds or
government-owned companies. The aim is to facilitate their operations or
utilize them as in-kind shares in investment projects.
The draft law includes provisions designed to promote
investment by easing property ownership restrictions. Additionally, it takes
into account the rights of specific division parties before the judiciary,
including the right to participate in auctions.
Revisions to Judicial Service Systems
The Cabinet also approved an amended system for the Judicial
Service System for Sharia judges for the year 2023.
This revision aims to address the financial rights of Sharia
judges and employees of the Judges and Sharia Courts Department who work in
Jerusalem.
By providing an end-of-service bonus system, this decision
ensures that their financial entitlements are met upon completion of their
services. It aims to prevent any legal disputes regarding their rights,
considering the nature of their work and their status.
Another approval by the Cabinet was for the amended system
for the Social Solidarity Fund for Sharia judges and judicial officers in the
year 2023.
The purpose of this amendment is to unify the disbursement
mechanism for Sharia judicial officers, aligning it with the principles
established for regular judicial officers.
Furthermore, it addresses the disbursement principles for
participants in the fund, including judges and Sharia judicial officers
appointed during the fiscal year of the fund.
