KUWAIT: The low cost homes project may not be listed among those that the Cabinet has been considering for reschedule following the implementation of funding law, according to officials from the Parliament's Housing Affairs Committee.
The project will not be accorded government funding as a tender has already been floated and awarded to a company, prior to it being stalled. In response, the said company had taken legal action against the Cabinet reported, Al-Qabas.
On a separate note, a parliament member recently urged all members to adopt a unified stance in order to draw up a charter of conduct that protects nationalist sentiments, asserting on the importance of safeguarding patriotism during the process of discussing draft laws in the Parliament.
MP Mohammad Al-Huwailah further indicated that the Parliament should 'conduct a thorough study' of the amendments suggested by the Cabinet on the audio-visual law which will be discussed during the start of the new term. This approach is being taken with the aim of drafting a law that can protect national unity without infringing upon freedoms.
