The Administrative Reform Committee has given the green light to outsource specific regulatory tasks such as inspections and certifications to recognized third‑party agencies.
The move aims to address growing delays in public service delivery that have arisen from chronic staff shortages across various government departments.
By delegating these functions, the administration expects faster turnaround times and improved efficiency, while maintaining compliance with existing standards.
Officials said the selected private firms will operate under strict guidelines and oversight to ensure transparency and accountability.
The decision reflects a broader push towards public‑private partnerships in governance, seeking to enhance service quality without expanding the civil‑service workforce.
