Emir’s speech reflects citizens’ ambitions: Advisory Council

The Advisory Council held its weekly meeting as part of its 46th ordinary session under the chairmanship of HE Advisory Council Speaker Ahmed bin Abdullah bin Zaid al-Mahmoud.At the outset of the meeting, the council discussed the speech of His Highness the Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani at the opening of the 46th ordinary session on Tuesday, stressing that it was a sincere and precise representation of the ambitions of citizens, and a new momentum to continue the progressive march in different areas, realise achievements and preserve the gains, and look ahead to the future with confidence, determination and strong national will.The council praised the Emir’s vision in the speech and expressed deep pride and appreciation to the people of Qatar and its unity behind its leadership, as well as to the residents of Qatar, for the strong will shown by them in the face of the unjust siege imposed on the country, and the campaigns of distortion, deception and slander that contradict “our faith, heritage and the superior values that we inherited from parents and grandparents” and are contrary to the most basic principles of ethics and international norms and laws.The council said it would intensify its efforts in the near future with the parliaments of friendly countries as well as international parliamentary unions to strengthen the ties between peoples and promote friendly ties and co-operation with them in order to maintain security and stability in the region and the well-being of its peoples, and adopt the principle of unconditional dialogue based on mutual respect for sovereignty in settling inter-state differences.Additionally, the Advisory Council touched on the legislative renaissance that the country will see in the coming period and the close co-operation that it requires between the council and the government in order to accelerate discussions on major laws that are currently under review by the council as well as those that will be referred to it in the future.After that, the council reviewed its agenda and formed its five permanent committees as follows:lLegal and Legislative Affairs Committee:1.
