The Higher Security Committee for the Federal National Council Elections 2019 has prepared a tight security plan to secure the workflow of the 4th edition of the elections. The elections is to be held next October, and spans 39 polling station statewide.


The Committee is working on overcoming all the obstacles that may hinder the workflow of the electoral process and identify a set of a number of guidelines that voters have to follow to ensure the success of this process on the election’s day. These guidelines include, ignoring rumors and refraining from spreading them, and to avoid gathering in front of the Electoral Committees.


The plan mainly aims at facilitating the voting process for voters, and ensuring the smoothness of the voting process. The plan will also contribute to public order ensuring the smoothness of the voting process across all the polling stations in the United Arab Emirates.


The plan aims at removing all the obstacles that can hinder the workflow of the election committees. The plan aims at ensuring the access of voters to the polling sites, and exiting it; in addition to organizing and facilitating their entry, and facilitating the process of voting in order to achieve the largest participation from the members of the electoral body, and to come out with the best outcomes that reflect the Emirati electoral experience.


The Ministry of Interior will provide all facilities and remove all obstacles that are facing the citizens, candidates and voter, to provide the appropriate environment for this democratic process as instructed by our wise leadership; especially that the upcoming elections requires our concerted efforts. This comes in light of the big numbers of citizens enlisted on the electoral lists. The Ministry of Interior is striving to achieve an honorable outcome of the election. The committee will work as one team that aims to achieve the safety and stability of the citizens and the country.


The Ministry’s keenness on speeding awareness among voters regarding the rules and provisions of the electoral process, is the result of considering it among the essential tasks for the success of any elections; in addition to the keenness of our wise leadership on involving citizens in the process of decision-making.


The Higher Security Committee for the Federal National Council Elections at the ministry of interior has achieved distinguished successes in the previous electoral entitlements through cooperating and coordinating with all concerned parties and specialized committees in the elections, which is a shared responsibility among all UAE nationals, since it represents a national mission. We should join our efforts to conduct an honorable electoral process that supports the empowerment process endorsed by His Highness the President.
