Parliament Panel To Set Up Roadmap To Replace Expatriates With Citizens
MP Khalil Al-Saleh revealed that the Parliament’s committee for replacement of expatriates with citizens and for employment affairs will hold a meeting this Monday to set up a roadmap for its work, reports Al-Anba daily.
He affirmed that the Parliament’s approval for his request to form the committee is a major step towards activating the Parliament’s role in this regard. MP Al-Saleh said he hopes the government will cooperate with the committee in order to resolve this thorny file, indicating that the time has come to completely stop the employment of expatriates in the government sector.
;He clarified that the committee will work on replacing non- Kuwaitis in the public sector until the problem related to unemployment subsides, indicating that figures show there has been a rapid increase in the employment of expatriates in the government sector. Al-Saleh indicated that the employment rate of expatriates in the government sector had increased to 30 percent last year, which is an increase of 2.5 percent since 2012.
On the other hand, the number of Kuwaitis being employed in the government sector is dropping. He stressed the importance of finding job opportunities for citizens, insisting that reality has proven that the solutions taken by the government in the past lacked effectiveness and were merely holistic.
