The Prime Minister of the Government of Somalia, Hamsa Abdi Barre, chaired a meeting of the Cabinet of the Government of Somalia today, Thursday, which discussed mainly security-related reports, and also approved a draft law.

The Cabinet approved the draft law amending the Civil Servants Law of the government, which outlines the reform of the labor system and the protection of the rights of civil servants in the government, in line with the National Transformation Plan (NTP 2025-2029).

The Minister of Labor and Social Affairs of the Government of Somalia, Yusuf Mohamed Adan, said that it is a great honor that today the Cabinet of Ministers of the Government of Somalia officially approved the Civil Servants Law, which is the first major reform since the previous law No. 11, 2006.

As the Minister noted, this new law is based on the general principles of the civil service system, which consists of 68 articles, including 9 new articles. This law is also consistent with other important laws such as the pension law, the Somali labor law, and the policy of ranks & salaries.

On the other hand, during the conference, reports on the security of the country, especially the war that the Somali government is waging against the Al-Shabaab group, were heard from the Ministers of Defense and Internal Security of the Somali government, who reported on the latest situations in the wars that have taken place in the country against Al-Shabaab.

The Somali Council of Ministers meeting also presented the work and efforts of the Somali National Army Support Committee in the fight against Al-Shabaab.
