The UAE Cabinet has approved the establishment of a Legislative Intelligence Office, marking a significant advancement in the modernization of the country’s legislative framework through the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and data analytics. This decision was made during a Cabinet meeting chaired by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE, held at Al Watan Palace in Abu Dhabi.

According to Gulf News, the new Legislative Intelligence Office is tasked with developing an integrated legislative map that encompasses both federal and local laws. This map will be interconnected with court rulings, executive procedures, and public services, all powered by artificial intelligence, facilitating a more streamlined legislative process.

Sheikh Mohammed emphasized that this AI-based legislative system would represent a paradigm shift within the legislative cycle. He noted that it would ensure speed, precision, and alignment with the UAE’s rapid national development while upholding legislative excellence and adhering to global best practices. This innovative system will also enable the government to monitor the effects of legislation on society and the economy in real-time, using advanced big data analytics to propose necessary legal amendments as needs and outcomes evolve.

Additionally, the new office will establish connections with international research and policy centers, which will help the UAE align with the most effective and innovative legislative frameworks worldwide.
