Proposal for setting up committee for driving licenses of expatriates rejected.

Interior Minister Sheikh Khaled Al-Jarrah AlSabah rejected a proposal calling to set up a higher committee to supervise the issuance and renewal of driving licenses of expatriates.

In a response to the proposal by MP Waleed Al-Tabtabaei, the minister said the committee will complicate the procedures for issuing driving licenses to millions of foreigners in the country.

He added that issuance of driving licenses to expatriates is governed by a set of ministerial decisions issued to regulate the procedures.
