The federal government has tabled three draft laws in the Federal National Council pertaining to compulsory education, plant genetic resources for food and agriculture and amendments to the federal decree No. 2 for 2004 on the establishment of the Emirates Identity Authority (Eida).
According to the letter sent by Minister of State for Foreign Affairs and Minister of State for FNC Affairs Dr Anwar Mohammed Gargash and to FNC Speaker Mohammed Ahmed Al Murr, the drafts were tabled following endorsement by the Cabinet during its session held on July 22, 2012.
