Cabinet’s approval of Enforcement Law is in interest of the judicial organization
RIYADH — The Board of Grievances said that the Cabinet’s approval of the Enforcement Law before the Board of Grievances is in the interest of the judicial organization in the field of administrative enforcement. The law stipulates establishing one or more courts for administrative enforcement. It also permits the establishment of specialized departments for enforcement in the administrative courts in the regions and governorates in which an administrative enforcement court has not been established. The law applies to the executive documents specified per Article 4 of the law, whether the enforcement of these documents is in favor of persons against the administrative bodies or in their favor against persons if these documents have a right of a specified amount in the event of performance. The eighth article of the law also specified the statutory period for filing a request for enforcement before the court, which is ten years from the date of the judgment becoming final or from the date of the emergence of the right contained in the other executive documents. The law shows the means and tools that the Administrative Enforcement Court has to enforce against the administrative authorities. This is through the enforcement of the decisions and orders issued by the court to the administrative authority, including the notification of the competent supervisory authorities, or through the necessary measures that the court deems to have access to budgets, jobs, procedures, or any document that is necessary to see. The administrative authority can also request the enforcement circuit to guide it on how to implement, and the department, when necessary, issues an order that includes a statement of the procedures required for enforcement. The Board of Grievances was keen to complete the judicial procedures through the preparation of an execution modality that contributes to the expeditious completion of the enforcement of executive documents without any delay or failure through enhancing the efficiency of judicial work by implementing the executive documents specified by the law to achieve justice and equity at all levels according to the directives of the wise leadership of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. — SPA
