The Ministry of Municipalities and Housing has updated the municipal regulations governing private slaughterhouses as part of its ongoing efforts to improve operational efficiency, enhance service quality, and strengthen municipal compliance. The update was carried out in coordination with the Ministry of Environment, Water, and Agriculture to support public health and ensure a safe and well organized urban environment.
The Ministry explained that the new updates aim to develop the business environment within the private slaughterhouse sector, empower investors, and increase compliance with municipal requirements, contributing to reducing violations and improving the urban landscape.
