Prime Minister
Bisher Al-Khasawneh had said that the
new city will not replace the capital Amman, nor will it be an alternative
capital, but that it will host most government ministries, except for the
headquarters of the Prime Ministry, the parliament, and the Judicial Council,
which will remain in Amman.
He said that the
Ministerial Economic Development Committee is in the process of completing the study over the next few days and
will give its assessment report to the Lower House.
The first phase of the project will provide approximately
83,000 jobs when it is completed, in 2025, he added.
