Speaker seeks more FNC authority
Abdul Aziz al Ghurair, the Speaker of the Federal National Council, called yesterday for reforms that would allow the national assembly greater authority to hold officials accountable.
“We express our aspiration over continuing support with regard to enabling of the legislative and monitoring powers of the council in a way that allows the council to carry out full and outstanding parliamentary duties,” Mr al Ghurair said during the council’s opening session.
The session was attended by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, and Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces.
