A new law has been enacted in Sharjah, amending previous legislation concerning human resources for military personnel in regulatory bodies.

This amendment introduces changes to the promotion and retirement processes, as well as the establishment of a Police Judiciary Council.

The revised law mandates the formation of committees within regulatory bodies to oversee promotions and retirements, ensuring candidates meet the necessary criteria.

For higher-ranking officers, proposals for promotion or retirement must be submitted to the Ruler for approval, while decisions for lower ranks are handled by the respective bodies.

The newly established Police Judiciary Council is tasked with reviewing disciplinary violations and imposing penalties, with its decisions requiring ratification by the head of the relevant regulatory body.

These changes aim to enhance the governance and accountability of military personnel within the emirate.
