Marriage support fund to be launched in Oman in June
By OUR CORRESPONDENT Muscat – Following a directive issued by His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik, a marriage support fund will be launched in all governorates before the end of June. The announcement was made during the first governors' meeting convened this year, chaired by Sayyid Hamoud bin Faisal al Busaidi, Minister of Interior, on Sunday. Busaidi underscored the importance of aligning local development plans with His Majesty the Sultan's vision to empower governorates and strengthen community participation in driving progress of wilayats. One of the main items discussed was implementation of a marriage support fund. Governors have been instructed to take the necessary executive measures to activate the Royal Directive, which will be implemented according to specific standards to be outlined by Ministry of Interior. The initiative stems from a Royal Directive issued in January to establish the marriage support fund allocating RO1mn to each of the sultanate's 11 governorates. These funds aim to provide financial assistance to citizens intending to marry. Details of application process and eligibility criteria will be announced by relevant authorities soon. The meeting also addressed several common issues affecting the governorates and reviewed progress on implementation of municipal council recommendations.
