    • They also reportedly provide a stimulating environment through the best services, procedures and facilities

    The Sharjah Executive Council on Tuesday, June 1, approved Sharjah Health Authority service charges.

    Local reports said the charges enhance the progress of business in the health sector and provide a stimulating environment through the best services, procedures and facilities, besides promoting all existing and future health facilities.

    The authority also constantly works to adopt different plans to attract the best hospitals, companies and investments in the health sector, contributing in promoting the level of health care and the provision of various treatment methods for all specialties.

    The decision on the charges was taken at a meeting of the SEC presided over by SEC Chairman and Sharjah’s Crown Prince and Deputy Ruler Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammed bin Sultan Al Qasimi.

    The council discussed several topics on its agenda in line with the vision and the development in the emirate.

    During the meeting, the council approved the Memorandum of Understanding to be concluded between itself and the Regional Centre for Educational Planning under UNESCO, within the framework of the two parties’ keenness to support cooperation and the implementation of joint educational activities, as well as the desire to unify joint educational efforts in developing and building the capacities of specialists in the field of education, ensuring development of joint research and studies according to the best practices.

    The MoU also aims to improve the educational system of the emirate, and to benefit from the common experiences between the two parties in achieving their strategic goals, contributing in providing equal opportunities in education.

    The council also reviewed the response of the Sharjah Economic Development Department to the recommendations of the Sharjah Consultative Council regarding discussing the Department’s policy.
