7/17/24, 1:43 PM SLC organises ‘Your Summer Legislation Boost 2024' Programme under the theme ‘Navigating Future Technology: AI and Legislation'
growing role of advanced technology applications, particularly artificial intelligence, and the expanding scope of their
uses, present new opportunities for development across various sectors. However, this also poses challenges in
regulating the use of these technologies, safeguarding the rights of individuals and institutions, and mitigating the

risks associated with the misuse of these technologies. This year, our Programme will extensively explore the
connection between technology and legislation through a series of workshops, sessions, visits, and other events
designed to enrich legal knowledge and enhance legislative awareness.”

Dr. Najat Al Amri, Assistant Legal Advisor, Head of the Infrastructure and Government Regulatory Legislation
Section at the SLC, and programme supervisor, emphasised that the “Your Summer Legislation Boost Programme
is a pioneering initiative aimed at increasing awareness of the latest government strategies, which are crucial inputs

for legislative work. This year's edition focuses on emerging technologies and their impact on the legislative system.
Artificial intelligence will prominently feature on the legislative agendas of countries in the near future, given the
need to regulate its use amidst its rapid growth potential.”

Dr. Al Amri highlighted the pivotal role of proactive legislative approaches in establishing a more flexible and
sustainable legislative system capable of keeping pace with the rapid developments witnessed globally today.
