MUSCAT: The Majlis Ash’shura on Sunday starts its fourth ordinary session (2026-2027) of the tenth term (2023-2027).

The first session will witness the swearing-in of Ali bin Salem al Makhmari, as a new member of Majlis, representing the Wilayat of Shinas, for the remainder of the tenth term. This is because the seat formerly occupied by Yousef bin Ahmed Shaheen al Balushi has fallen vacant. Al Makhmari received the second-highest number of votes according to the election results announced by the Ministry of Interior on October 29, 2023.

During the meeting, the council will review the draft state budget for the fiscal year 2027 and approve the work plans of its standing committees. It will also discuss and approve a number of draft laws and agreements referred from the government.

The State Council will also start its fourth ordinary session of the eighth term on Sunday.

Shaikh Abdulmalik bin Abdullah al Khalili, Chairman of the State Council, will address the State Council’s first meeting which will see a review of a study prepared by the Education and Research Committee on scientific research and innovation. — ONA
