The SEC reviewed the report of the efforts of government entities during dealing with the weather conditions and its effects during the past week and its various side effects in the cities of the Emirate on the eastern coast.

The SEC discussed the 'Building Identity' project, which will contribute to giving a self-identity to each building by pre-determining the health environment services that must be available in the building, in addition to collecting detailed information about the building and its occupants and linking it to an electronic system to create a comprehensive database of services, permits, licences and other data related to the building.
The SEC directed the preparation of a detailed study on the project, including the observations of the members of the SEC, and coordinating with all concerned parties.
