00:15:07and energies on building a suitable legislative

00:16:46enacting the new media law and avoiding
00:16:49conflicts between preserving national
00:16:52security and state institutions, and the role
00:16:56of government media in achieving the desired harmony
00:16:59and establishing common visions for ministerial
00:17:01media.
00:17:07The Speaker of the People's

00:17:14Union, headed by Secretary-General Inda Philippe. Al-Awak stressed
00:17:18during the meeting the importance of strengthening
00:17:21communication between the world's parliaments to support
00:17:25peoples, noting the deep relationship between the Syrian
00:17:29Parliament and the Inter-Parliamentary Union, which extends
00:17:32for more than 80 years, and the need to
00:17:35work on developing it and strengthening joint cooperation.
00:18:00The General Secretariat of the Presidency of the Republic
00:18:03clarified that increasing official working hours
00:18:06by one additional hour aims to allow more time
00:18:10for completing tasks and improving coordination,
00:18:13as the increase is accompanied by developing management methods and simplifying
00:18:17procedures, and does not necessarily mean poor employee
00:18:20performance.
00:18:24After announcing the increase in official working
00:18:28hours by one additional hour, the General Secretariat
00:18:31of the Presidency of the Republic clarified the application
00:18:34mechanisms and guarantees of workers' rights, indicating
00:18:37that the increase does not necessarily mean poor
00:18:41employee performance, as efficiency is also linked to the volume
00:18:45of tasks, procedures, and available resources. It is
00:18:48possible to rely on the available achievement and
00:18:51cumulative data at institutions to accurately determine
00:18:55the size of the problem. The General Secretariat
00:18:59mentioned that administrative bodies include institutions
00:19:02and public units that undertake governmental, regulatory,
00:19:05and service functions, while economic bodies include
00:19:09public institutions and establishments that engage
00:19:12in productive, commercial, or operational activities
00:19:15according to their own regulations. Regarding receiving citizens,
00:19:18the General Secretariat clarified that the needs
00:19:21of service institutions vary according to the nature
00:19:25of their work and the number of visitors, and the principle
00:19:28is that entities should benefit from extending working
00:19:32hours to improve services. Regarding employees'
00:19:35rights, the General Secretariat clarified that workers'
00:19:39rights to wages, compensation, breaks, and vacations
00:19:42remain subject to existing legislation. The implementation
00:19:45of the decision requires clarifying the legal status
00:19:49of the additional hour, and whether it falls within
00:19:52the official working hours or requires
00:19:55special treatment in some entities, noting that
00:19:59breaks should be organized in a manner consistent
00:20:02with the new attendance duration. Regarding special
00:20:05cases, the General Secretariat clarified that effective
00:20:09management requires taking into account the different
00:20:13humanitarian and living conditions of employees,
00:20:16especially those with health conditions, and
00:20:20responsibilities for caring for children or the elderly,
00:20:24and those who face exceptional difficulties
00:20:27in transportation. To measure the impact on productivity,
00:20:30quality of services, and employee satisfaction, the
00:20:34General Secretariat pointed
00:20:36can be reviewed three months after its implementation,
00:20:40emphasizing the existence of a periodic evaluation
00:20:44of results and that each
00:20:45institution is responsible for providing clear data
00:20:50on its performance. The national forum for
00:20:53administrative development leaders, organized by the
00:20:56Ministry of Administrative Development, began its work
00:21:00in Damascus, with the participation of a number of figures
00:21:03concerned with administrative affairs, as part of efforts
00:21:07to develop institutional work and enhance the efficiency
00:21:11of administrative performance. Volunteering has become
00:21:16at the Ministry of Administrative Development the first
00:21:20national forum for administrative development leaders at the
00:21:23level of Syria. The forum's title was "Enhancing the
00:21:27institutional capabilities of public entities to lead the
00:21:31transformation." Of course, the importance of this
00:21:34forum stems from the participation of all administrative development
00:21:38entities, from ministries, authorities, and governorates,
00:21:41even universities and hospitals. All government
00:21:44institutions are participating in this forum so that
00:21:47we can work together as one system towards common
00:21:51goals and a single vision. Of course, the
00:21:53forum discussed a number of main themes. We presented
00:21:57the institutional transformation line, which is considered
00:22:00the strategy of the Ministry of Administrative Development.
00:22:04Of course, today we are in the national forum for administrative
00:22:07development leaders, and we are highlighting volunteering
00:22:10and the importance of the concept that was introduced
00:22:13by the Ministry of Administrative Development. We explained
00:22:17about the Manat platform and how to attract volunteers
00:22:20to participate in volunteer work with public entities.
00:22:24We also highlighted the role of administrative development
00:22:28role in activating
00:22:31volunteering in all entities and all governorates
00:22:35so that young people today have the opportunity to enter
00:22:39the government job market, learn about the environment,
00:22:41and of course, ultimately, enter in an organized
00:22:45and specific way. They will
00:22:49perform and the outputs they will achieve by the
00:22:52end of the opportunity
00:23:05and the end of the work. They will receive a certificate
00:23:08proving their efforts with the public sector.
00:23:11This will, for example, need to clarify a clear
00:23:14guide and learn more about the leaders in the administrative
00:23:18development sector.
00:23:20Also, to inform them more about the content of the
00:23:24civil service law, about the path of the
00:23:28Ministry of Development's plan regarding leadership
00:23:31development and building administrative cadres
00:23:35specialized in administrative development, which ultimately
00:23:38contributes to helping develop the capabilities
00:23:42of all employees in the government sector.

00:27:33direction towards digital transformation and simplifying
00:27:37judicial procedures, the Ministry of Justice
00:27:39adopted the electronic notification system
00:27:43in the Palace of Justice to largely replace
00:27:46paper notifications
00:27:49notifications to stakeholders

00:28:05of Justice, and the decision

00:28:42luxury, but rather a real legislative and administrative
00:28:46revolution that re-engineers the relationship between
00:28:49the judicial system and the continued contact with them,
00:28:53meaning
