The meeting discussed various governmental topics aimed at developing the governmental work system in the emirate, monitoring the performance of departments and authorities, and reviewing the progress of development projects across all cities and regions of Sharjah.

The Council approved the exemption of several housing support beneficiaries, converting their allocations from loan category to grant category, after meeting the required eligibility conditions.
