In attendance were His Highness Sheikh Sultan bin Ahmed bin Sultan Al Qasimi, the Deputy Ruler of Sharjah, and the Deputy Chairman of the Executive Council.
The Council discussed several items on its agenda aimed at assessing the performance of government departments and agencies, as well as reviewing legal frameworks that bolster the financial sector. These efforts are essential for enhancing the emirate's economic standing and supporting its ongoing growth across various key sectors.

This initiative is expected to have a positive impact on the emirate’s GDP.
