Parliament limits municipal council dissolutions
The Local Governance Law draft in Jordan has been approved after amendments aimed at enhancing governance and expanding popular participation. The draft law increased the government's authority in dissolving municipal councils and set a specific timeframe to limit their powers. It also granted greater authority to municipal mayors to improve oversight and follow-up on municipal plans. The amendments are focused on improving the performance of municipalities and facilitating citizen participation, including better management of local affairs, the activation of modern data usage, and ensuring the equitable distribution of fuel revenues to serve municipal interests. The emphasis is on empowering citizens, easing the electoral process, and ensuring transparency and accountability.
