August , 2025 – The General Secretariat of the Supreme Legislation Committee in the Emirate of Dubai (SLC) organised a
workshop titled“Consistency and Coherence between Federal and Local Legislation,” aimed at legal professionals across
government entities. The initiative reflects the SLC's ongoing commitment to strengthening legislative cooperation,
preventing legal conflicts, and enhancing legal awareness within public sector institutions.

Delivered by Dr. Faisal Hassan Al-Omari, Legal Advisor at the SLC, the workshop was attended by several legal experts
and specialists. As part of SLC's continued efforts to enhance legislative coordination, the session aimed to support the
effective implementation of legislation, achieve legal certainty, prevent duplication in legislation, and foster greater
awareness among lawmakers while enhancing collaboration between federal and local authorities.

The workshop explored several key topics, including an introduction to the federal system and distribution of legislative
competencies; the concept and importance of legislative coherence; and strategies for achieving alignment between federal
and local legislation. It also addressed potential contradictions between the two legislative levels. Participants discussed the
challenges to legislative harmony and the implications of inconsistency on the rule of law and the administration of justice.
Additionally, the workshop reviewed the benefits of legislative consistency and the critical role of the judiciary in upholding it.

H.E. Ahmed Saeed bin Meshar Al Muhairi, SLC Secretary General, emphasised the importance of coordination between
legislative bodies to ensure coherence and avoid conflicts that could undermine the quality of government services or
obscure rights and obligations.“Harmonising legislative frameworks is fundamental to upholding justice and the rule of law.
