MP Abdul- Kareem Al-Kandari presented a bill on amending the Civil Service Law to ensure that expatriates are appointed to public sector jobs only if there are no Kuwaitis qualified for these jobs.
According to the bill, it requires the revision of Paragraph Three of Article 15 of the law to read as follows: “Non-Kuwaitis should be appointed to public sector jobs only if there are no Kuwaitis qualified for these jobs. Their employment contracts should not exceed five years, while renewal or extension of their contracts is not allowed in any way.”
According to Al-Kandari, the proposal aims to provide public sector jobs to citizens and regulate the appointment of non-Kuwaitis in the sector.
