The Department of Municipal Affairs enhances cooperation with the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department

The Department of Municipal Affairs (DMA) commenced operations in May 2007, following the Abu Dhabi Executive Council's decision to integrate the Emirate's municipal system. As a new government entity, the Department of Municipal Affairs was created to lead, coordinate and oversee three municipalities in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and the Western Region. The DMA has a regulatory role while the service delivery and operations are at the municipality level.

The Abu Dhabi Judicial Department is embarking on an era of modernization, inspired and guided by the wise vision of HH Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE and Ruler of Abu Dhabi. His vision is to ensure justice that fosters citizens' and residents' rights, promotes equality and ensures security as well as socio-economic development. 

By virtue of Sheikh Khalifa's vision, and the support of HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Chairman of the Abu Dhabi Executive Council, the Judicial Department today, with the support of experienced consultants and a cadre of qualified Emirati experts, plays a role in ensuring the supremacy of law and protecting national achievements.
