penalties and their legal applications. Additionally, it explores the advantages of existing
legislation, as well as the key shortcomings that impede their effective implementation.

His Excellency Ahmad bin Meshar Al Muhairi, SLC Secretary General, asserted that this
book holds great significance as it introduces a comprehensive alternative approach to
dealing with modern penalties for violations that do not merit criminal penalties due to their
limited severity and gravity. Al Muhairi explained that the book is a valuable addition to the
UAE legal and legislative resources, enlightening readers on alternative penalties to deter
arbitrary enforcement. “This book is the result of close collaboration between the SLC and the
DJI, demonstrating our joint dedication to disseminating legal knowledge and serving public
interest,” he added.
Her Excellency Judge Dr. Ibtisam Ali Al-Badwawi, DJI Director General, said: “As a
publishing house, the DJI is committed to nurturing the legal and judicial community. Through
our ‘Shared Knowledge Initiatives', we consistently provide diversified series of publications,
studies, and academic research papers aimed at enriching the knowledge of the legal
community. This empowers stakeholders within the judicial system by equipping them with the
necessary resources to enhance their performance and expand their knowledge base.”
Al-Badawi pointed out that the launch of the ‘Administrative Penalties for Criminal Offences'
book in partnership with the SLC reflects the DJI's commitment to nurturing legal researchers
and celebrating their academic achievements aimed at enhancing legal awareness within
society.
This launch marks the latest milestone in the collaboration between the SLC and the DJI. This
partnership aims to establish a solid groundwork for the application of best practices that
enhance legislative endeavours and establish a legal and judicial framework conducive to
sustainable development in the UAE.
