Sharjah's Executive Council Advances Healthcare Regulations

Post by : Badri Ariffin

On Tuesday, Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammed bin Sultan Al Qasimi led a meeting of the Sharjah Executive Council (SEC) within the Ruler’s Office in Sharjah. The session saw the attendance of Sheikh Abdullah bin Salem bin Sultan Al Qasimi and Sheikh Sultan bin Ahmed bin Sultan Al Qasimi, the Vice Chairmen of the Executive Council.

The Council commenced by extending Eid Al Adha wishes and congratulations to Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Sheikh Dr Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, members of the Supreme Council, rulers of the Emirates, Crown Princes, Deputy Rulers, citizens, residents, and Muslims globally. They prayed for the peace and prosperity of the Arab and Islamic nations.

During the meeting, SEC approved modifications to Executive Council Resolution No. 29 of 2025, which pertains to the regulation of healthcare activities and professions within the Emirate of Sharjah.

These revised regulations target both government and private healthcare institutions, including medical facilities in free zones, along with healthcare professionals operating within these entities.

The focus of the amendments is to enhance the quality and efficiency of healthcare services, ensuring compliance with established laws and regulations while bolstering monitoring and regulatory frameworks. Additionally, new administrative penalties for breaches aim to curb professional misconduct, protect patient rights, and uphold high healthcare safety standards in the emirate.

The SEC also evaluated a report concerning the performance of Sharjah’s overall budget and activity outcomes for the latter half of 2025, focusing on key sectors including social development, government operations, infrastructure, capital projects, and economic growth.

The Council reiterated its commitment to aiding government entities in meeting strategic objectives and green-lit development plans intended to elevate government performance and public service delivery.

Moreover, the report presented comparisons of government revenues and expenditures for the 2025 fiscal year against those of the prior year, along with assessments of achievement rates for planned outputs from government departments and entities.

They also deliberated on growth indicators across vital sectors, showcasing Sharjah’s balanced financial policies and effective resource management strategies directed at fostering sustainable development and enhancing community services.
