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.
