In this article we look at the phenomenon from a regional perspective, the legal issues and the ramifications.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Diploma Mill</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<img class=\"wp-image-8216 alignright\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"595\" height=\"272\" />\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The phenomenon of fake diplomas production dates back to Middle Ages in France and Italy.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The concept is known as \"diploma mill\" or a \"degree mill\" and refers to a non-accredited company that declares itself as a higher educational institution and awards worthless degrees for a certain fee. In some cases, diploma mills may claim to give credits for \"relevant life experience\", whereas in other cases the victims of the scam may have to pass online exams and write term papers thereby creating an impression of real education. To strengthen their position, diploma mills closely cooperate with accreditation mills, set up for the purpose of providing an appearance of authenticity.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In some cases the student knows he is buying a fake degree and in others the student is an unwitting victim of a scam.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Catch me if you can</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In 2015 the <em>New York Times</em> published a report exposing a global scam developed by company in Pakistan which had sold thousands of diplomas of non-existing universities through a complex web of 370 websites including school sites, fake accreditation bodies, recruitment agencies, language schools and even a law firm. Apparently the firm was generating millions of dollars every month.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Among the more alarming revelations was that the company sold aeronautical degrees to airline employees, medical degrees to hospital workers, engineering degrees to site workers and law degrees to dropped out students.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">According to the report, more than 3,000 people in the Middle East hold degrees from bogus universities from this company.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">KSA</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In Saudi Arabia the sectors that appear to be most affected by fake degrees are healthcare and construction. According to the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties 3,755 forgery cases involving health practitioners were revealed, with 57 physicians being arrested and prosecuted. The Saudi Council of Engineers detected 2,294 fake engineering certificates held by individuals applying to work in the Kingdom.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Qatar</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">When the scandal broke out, the government reacted immediately by introducing new regulations, according to which graduates of foreign universities were required to obtain a letter from their institutions confirming specific details about their courses before receiving approval for a residence permit. Moreover, the companies were prohibited to hire people who have studied for all or part of their degrees online.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Kuwait</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The forged degrees scandal came only a few weeks after the government issued a new regulation requiring all engineers in Kuwait to be registered and certified by the Kuwait Engineering Society. Kuwaiti authorities decided to tackle the problem from several angles:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">Kuwaiti Ministry of Foreign Affairs offices abroad have been warned not to approve any university degrees without coordinating first with the Kuwaiti National Accreditation Bureau;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">the Health Minister has ordered the formation of a special committee to examine and validate university postgraduate degrees of Ministry of Health employees including both Kuwaiti and expat doctors, nurses, pharmacists, technicians and administrative staff members;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">the Ministry of Higher Education has started collaboration with the Ministry of Interior to scrutinize suspect certificates;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">parliamentarians have submitted draft legislation on how to combat this crime in a more effective way as well as proposals for legal action to be undertaken against wrongdoers (such as corrective measures against promotions or wage raises); and</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">criminal cases are moving towards trial against accused violator and some have already been convicted. Moreover, five people suspected of holding fake university degrees have been jailed pending investigation and trial and 45 others are under investigation.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">UAE</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The government introduced a preventive measure for potential victims of this fraud by publishing a list of genuine universities which provide online education, whose degrees are recognised and will be accredited in the UAE. The list can be found on Ministry of Education website, so every resident who wants to enroll for distance learning course can check his preferred university for authenticity.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">It has been reported that expats found to be using fake degrees will face a life ban from working in the UAE.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Worldwide</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The concept of fake degrees is a global phenomenon. In the last few weeks a US Republican party candidate has admitted to posing with a fake diploma. In United Kingdom, the police had to re-examine 700 cases that a falsely credentialed police criminologist had worked on. In Australia police had to investigate a sophisticated Chinese forgery business charging thousands of dollars for fake degrees and diplomas from nearly 100 of Australia’s leading institutions.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h2>\"Employers are in a high risk group when it comes to damages indirectly caused by fake degrees. The concept of vicarious liability is one that can make an employer liable for the actions of an employee carried out in the course of their employment\"</h2>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8271\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/shutterstock_84364579.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"4288\" height=\"2099\" /></h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Criminal law considerations</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The concept of issuing and using a fake degree constitutes a crime in every GCC jurisdiction. The type of crime and punishment, however, differs from country to country. In most cases the authorities rely on regulations related to fraud, forgery and misrepresentation when dealing with fake degrees.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">By way of example the punishment in KSA for forgery and misrepresentation in different cases will vary from fines in the range of SAR 300,000-700,000 and imprisonment for the period from one to seven years, followed by (in respect of non-nationals) deportation and a life ban from entering KSA. Whereas in the UAE the convicted shall be sentenced to up to ten years of imprisonment.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In respect of government employees the sanctions are generally more severe.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The novelty of this phenomenon, the diversity of its variations and wide range of consequences means that the authorities are now looking at putting in place specific laws (or sections of laws) that deal with fake degrees (as opposed to fraud/forgery/misrepresentation generally).</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The general principle in criminal law is that the accused must have had intent to commit a crime. Therefore those unwitting students who were victims of a scam may not face criminal sanction; obviously the court would consider whether a person in the accused’s position, using reasonable judgement, would have considered the university to be genuine.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Employment law considerations</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Background checks</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">From a risk management point of view an employer should carry out background checks prior to commencement of employment in order to establish the candidate’s academic credentials. This is not as easy as it might sound; in many cases employers outsource this task to a specialist company. Some employers would do this as part of a wider background check in relation to criminal records etc. It goes without saying that where the employer is an educational institution itself then this is an area of huge potential risk and deserves the commensurate focus.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">It is also possible to check the authenticity of credentials by contacting the Commission for Academic Accreditation and/or Ministry of Education.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">As regards existing employees, the employer may consider background checking employees in sensitive positions to ensure they hold the necessary accreditation.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The <em>New York Times</em> has published a list of bogus universities and it is not difficult to search for ‘graduates’ of such universities via social media, so an employer could quickly establish if any of its existing employees fall into this category.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Vicarious liability</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Employers are in a high risk group when it comes to damages indirectly caused by fake degrees. The concept of vicarious liability is one that can make an employer liable for the actions of an employee carried out in the course of their employment.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Termination</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Offers of employment are generally conditional upon verification of academic references, failing which the offer is withdrawn. Where the employee is already in the job for some time and it becomes apparent that his degree is fake then the employer could terminate him for gross misconduct. In all the GCC countries there is a provision in the labour law to this effect. That termination would be without notice and without end of service gratuity.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The employee would be entitled to due process; i.e. he would be entitled to state his defence to the allegation. He may be able to prove that he was an innocent victim in which case the employer would have to decide the appropriate action to take. In some cases it will be irrelevant whether the employee was an unwitting victim or not; i.e. his position absolutely requires him to hold a degree/diploma- e.g. doctor, nurse, engineer etc. In other cases the degree may have been preferable but not mandatory - e.g. sales manager - in which case the employer may decide to retain him as he has performed the job well over the years.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In all gross misconduct terminations legal advice should be sought as there may be other factors to consider (was the degree the primary documentation relied on by the employer? Did the employer become informally aware of the fake degree previously? etc).</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Conclusion</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The fake degree story has just begun and it has a long way to go before its full effects are felt. Employers and regulators are on red alert and need to remain vigilant. Background checking of employees in sensitive positions who are required to hold academic qualifications is an absolute must and failure to do so could lead to the employer being vicariously liable for damage done by that employee as well as obvious reputational harm to the company.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<em>Al Tamimi &amp; Company’s <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/sectors/education/\">Education team</a> supports education providers on all legal aspects of their operations.

By way of example, the UAE has one of the most buoyant private school markets in the world, with consistently high levels of occupancy coupled with year-on-year growth in demand, in large part as a result of the UAE’s growing expatriate population. It has been estimated that Dubai will need 134 new schools to be constructed over the course of the next 10 years in order to accommodate the estimated 200,000 pupils that will need seats by the 2027/2028 school year. It is a similar story in other parts of the Middle East. This will therefore require a concerted effort by developers, contractors, funders and the relevant regulatory bodies in order to facilitate the construction of such developments, in a manner that meets the every-increasing demand within the region.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The costs associated with investing in school infrastructure are significant. There are various reasons for this, one of which is the potential complexity of issues faced when embarking on such projects, such as the need to integrate the programme of works around the day-to-day activities of the school system (applicable for example where refurbishment works are being undertaken on an existing school).</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The procurement route adopted on any construction and engineering project is one of the key considerations for developers, which will allow them to assess whether the relevant works and moreover the project as a whole can complete on time, be of the required quality and be within budget. Another important consideration is ensuring that the tender process allows for a close examination of contractors’ experience within the sector. Given the specialist nature of school construction projects, developers should not only examine pricing but also consider whether the bidding contractor has sufficient knowledge and experience of working on such specialist projects in the region.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">A number of procurement options are available to developers operating within the education sector when procuring works and services from third parties. Each of these has its own advantages and disadvantages. In this article we discuss the following key procurement routes and explain the main advantages and disadvantages associated with each:</p>\r\n\r\n<ol>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">Traditional contracting;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">Design and build contracting; and</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">Public-private partnerships.</li>\r\n</ol>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Finally, we will briefly examine the important role that a well drafted operation and maintenance agreement has in addressing the ongoing operational demands of a school, following completion of a project.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">It should be noted that in addition to procuring works directly, an alternative option for developers is to enter into a ‘build to suit’ arrangement with educational facility operators. This essentially involves land owners, ground lease owners or developers undertaking the construction of an educational facility provided that they have a long term tenant (whether a school, educational institution or an operator) who wishes to enter into a long term lease of the facility. Although beyond the scope of this article, build to suit education projects are an important consideration and examined in greater detail in the article entitled \"<a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/law-update-articles/build-to-suit-education-projects/\">Build to Suit Education Projects</a>\" authored by Partner and Head of Real Estate, Jeremy Scott, in this month’s edition of Law Update.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-8272 size-large\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/shutterstock_549215536-690x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"950\" />Traditional Contracting</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">This is probably one of the most often encountered forms of procurement adopted by developers in the education sector. Essentially the developer (also known as the \"employer\") will engage a professional team of consultants (usually an architect, mechanical and electrical engineer, civil and structural engineer and perhaps other specialist consultants) to prepare designs and specifications for the works that are to then be constructed by a building contractor. Such designers typically have a proven track record and experience in operating in the education sector and this provides comfort that the designs will be well suited for an education facility and will be readily accepted by the relevant authorities.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The contractor will be engaged separately by the developer under a construction contract and will be responsible for engaging sub-contractors to the extent required in order to allow them to complete the required works in accordance with the approved designs.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The building contract will only be responsible for the construction of the works (as design responsibility remains vested in the design team). Given that school projects may concern the expansion of existing facilities (as opposed to ‘green field’ projects), it is likely that the construction works will need to be carried out in accordance with a detailed programme to ensure that interference and disruption during school time is minimised. Additionally, the construction contract needs to contain a specific procedure for the rectification of defects, again to ensure that construction works do not encroach on the day-to-day running of the school.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Some of the advantages of traditional contracting include that the employer retains control over the design of the project and therefore can monitor quality and ensure their requirements in this regard are met. This is a potentially telling advantage on account of the planning and design nuances that are applicable to school designs. There is, however, a greater risk of the building contractor being delayed and of them incurring cost overruns due to the additional oversight and involvement that the employer will have in the project. Delays can be particularly harmful as they may result in the school not being completed in time for an academic year and this could result in significant losses being incurred. In addition, there will be multiple points of responsibility, which can make the employer pursuing a claim in respect of defects that arise, more complex, costly and time consuming.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Design and Build Contracting</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The design and build procurement route generally involves the design of the works being undertaken entirely by the building contractor/its professional team of design consultants. Alternatively the initial design will be developed by the employer/its professional team of design consultants, subsequent to which responsibility for these designs will transfer to the contractor by way of novation of the design consultant appointments.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Here the building contractor takes single point responsibility and thus is liable to the employer for both the design and construction of the works.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The advantages associated with design and build contracting include that it offers greater certainty in terms of time for completion and cost, as such projects are usually for a defined duration and priced on a fixed, lump sum basis (this is of course provided that the employer does not make any changes to the required scope of works). As noted above, delays can be very damaging in the context of a school project so developers (and their funders) typically address this issue in detail in the construction contract. For example, the building contractor may be entitled to an early completion bonus while the employer will often insist on the ability to instruct the building contractor to accelerate the works if they fall behind schedule. Although delay damages are a ‘last resort’, thought should be given to the quantum of delay damages so that they correspond (as far as possible) to the loss that the employer will suffer arising out of a delay (i.e. if the facility is not ready for the start of the school term).</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The presence of single point responsibility makes it more straightforward for the employer and other parties with recourse to the building contractor, to seek redress should any design defects or workmanship issues arise, as opposed to having to pursue the relevant design consultants individually.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Disadvantages of this procurement route include that there may be added scope for delays to the project due to the changes that might be requested by the employer during the construction of the project or otherwise as a consequence of a delay in novating the design consultants to the building contractor. Such changes can also impact on costs. The employer also loses a degree of control over the project and therefore is less able to maintain oversight over quality, when compared to the traditional procurement route. This can have a significant impact in the context of an educational establishment on account of the typically prescriptive Employer’s Requirements. It is therefore important that the design and build contractor is closely supervised.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Public- Private Partnerships</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Public Private Partnerships (or \"PPPs\") structures have been used to procure schools, including in the United Kingdom and Australia but are less common in the region. In the traditional sense, the public authority would engage a private entity (usually in the form of a Special Purpose Vehicle) to design, construct, operate and maintain a school for a term of usually between 15 to 25 years, in exchange for which usage payments will be made to the private entity.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The introduction of the recent PPP Law in Dubai in addition to the proposed enactment of the draft Private Sector Participation Law (which will follow the previously introduced Privatization Projects Manual) in Saudi Arabia, underlines the growing emphasis being placed on PPPs by governments in the region and it may help facilitate the gradual adoption of this approach within the region. For the time being however, ‘quasi’ PPP structures are more likely to be adopted, whereby a private entity may grant a long term concession to a specialist school to design, construct, operate and maintain an educational facility.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">An important advantage of PPPs is that it allows the procuring entity to leverage efficiencies and expertise in the private sector in order to enable it to attain its development objectives. For the private sector, PPPs can assist in helping to secure the third party funding necessary to enable the project to proceed, due primarily to the involvement of a public authority.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Disadvantages of this method of procurement include that the procurement and tendering process can be lengthy and expensive, when compared to the traditional procurement process.</p>\r\n\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><img class=\"wp-image-8246 alignright\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/August-Edition-DPS_Page_18_Image_0001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"308\" height=\"256\" /></h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h2 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">\"The education sector in the Middle East has often been widely perceived as a lucrative investment opportunity for developers looking to expand their portfolio of investments…\"</h2>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"></h3>\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Operation and Maintenance Agreement</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Once a school has been constructed, in order for it to remain in good working order and attractive to the market, it must be properly operated and maintained. This is usually undertaken by the developer appointing an operation and maintenance contractor (\"O&amp;M Contractor\") under an operation and maintenance agreement (\"O&amp;M Agreement\", otherwise also known as a \"facilities management contract\"). Some of the more important provisions of an O&amp;M agreement, that the parties should ensure are adequately addressed, include the following:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">Having a clear and detailed scope of works specifying exactly what is required of the O&amp;M Contractor in addition to the key performance indicators (or \"KPIs\" against which their performance will be measured). These KPIs should be SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time Based);</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">A warranty that the O&amp;M Contractor has carried out all reasonable investigations and inspections of the school facility and that the asset is capable of being managed to the standards prescribed by the O&amp;M Agreement. This will reduce the risk of the O&amp;M Contractor seeking to blame the building contractor for any deficiencies in the services they perform;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">From a practical perspective, where the school is being newly constructed, it may be a good idea to have the O&amp;M Contractor inspect the asset prior to Take Over and to attend any tests on completion under the construction contract. The contractor may also be required to provide the O&amp;M Contractor with training for the operation and maintenance of the school. This will need to be addressed at the earliest stages of a project so that it is possible for the construction contract to include clauses to address issues of this nature;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">Penalties where the O&amp;M Contractor does not achieve the KPIs or for example, where there is an interruption to the operations of the school during school and non-school hours; and</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">Termination rights which may be linked to a breach of the KPI regime.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">There is of course a suite of other important considerations that the parties should be mindful of when negotiating an O&amp;M Agreement, such as insurance, force majeure, performance security and payment. In any event the contract should be closely examined to ensure it is tailored to the specific commercial arrangement between the parties, in addition to the laws of the jurisdiction or Emirate which will govern the contractual relationship.</p>\r\n<em>Al Tamimi &amp; Company’s <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/practice/construction-infrastructure/\">Construction and Infrastructure</a> team regularly advises on all elements of the construction procurement process.

In this article we analyse how these restrictions impact upon educational providers and their students.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The nature of the activity</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The nature of the activity will determine what type of regulatory approval is required. Clearly, not all activities carried out by education providers and their students are purely focused on fundraising. However, in recent times due to the introduction of new laws addressing the subject of fundraising, there has been a tendency to assume that all activities would require this type of approval. This is not always necessary. Many activities carried out by education providers, students, and parent groups are not predominantly concerned with raising funds (but which sometimes have that incidental benefit), but may still require other approvals.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In order to determine which pathway for obtaining approvals should be followed, It is necessary to examine whether an activity is:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">for the benefit of the education provider;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">for the benefit of the public (in whole or in part); and</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">whether there is an element of fundraising, and the intended class of recipient of the funds generated.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Activities for the benefit of the education provider</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In circumstances where an educational establishment is gathering support from other corporate bodies and from the public to improve the facilities offered by that provider, for example, investment in new sports equipment, or to create a bursary to allow the students additional educational opportunities, such as a trip overseas to undertake a research project; this kind of activity, although there is an element of fundraising, does not fall into the category of requiring a fundraising approval. The activity is purely for the benefit for the education provider and its students.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Activities for the benefit of the public</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Many education providers carry out activities which are intended to be of benefit of the public. For example, where a school has a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme, and participates in activities whereby either the general public or members of the general public will benefit. CSR activities creates opportunities for students to learn how to get involved in ‘volunteering’ and helping others who are less fortunate.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In the past, these kinds of activity would not have triggered any requirement on the education provider to obtain any kind of regulatory approval. Nowadays, the position is less clear. If the CSR activity is classified as being of public benefit, this can impose an obligation on the education provider to either register formally with a social community regulator or at least notify that regulator of its intended activities.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">At Federal level, the Federal Law No. (2) of 2008 Regarding Non-Governmental Public Welfare Associations and Organisations, requires organisations carrying out philanthropic activities to register as ‘public welfare associations’ but does not apply to:</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">‘schools and institutes, federations, associations, clubs, and youth and sport centers interested in youth cultural, social and sport affairs in the state regulated by Law no.25 of 1999 on the General Authority of Youth and Sports Welfare.’</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In Dubai, Law No. (12) of 2017 regulating Civil Society Organisations in Dubai, requires any organisation which engages in any kind of activity as a ‘civil association’ to first obtain a licence from the Community Development Authority (\"CDA\") but does not apply to:</p>\r\n\r\n<ol>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">The associations and institutions covered by the provisions of the Federal Law No. (2) of 2008; or</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">The bodies working in the field of youth and sport care covered by the provisions of the Federal Law No. (7) of 2008.</li>\r\n</ol>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">There may be some education providers which do not conform to those which are described and exempted from the above-mentioned laws. The most obvious example being a university, which is not specifically mentioned, but could instead fall into the category of ‘school’ or ‘institute’. In some cases, the education provider may need to prove that they should have the benefit of the exemption.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In those rare cases where the exemption does not apply, the organizer of the activity could argue that in carrying out occasional CSR activities, this does not place it squarely within the definition of either a public welfare organization or a civil association. However, the regulators themselves take a very broad interpretation of what activities fall within their particular legal scope, and have even required hospitals created on a ‘not for profit’ basis to obtain licenses to participate in activities which are connected with having a public benefit. One way of avoiding having to obtain approval is to conduct the CSR activity in conjunction with a social services provider or registered charity which has already obtained approval, in in effect ‘piggy-back’ on the principal’s licence.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Fundraising</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The laws applicable to fundraising activities have been explained in detail in our <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/law-update-articles/an-update-on-the-regulatory-framework-for-crowdfunding-platforms-in-the-uae/\">previous articles</a>, and thus are mentioned only in brief here in the context of their application to fundraising projects organised by education providers, parent groups, and students.</p>&nbsp;\r\n&nbsp;<img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8265\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/August-Edition-DPS_Page_20_Imojage_0001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1037\" height=\"350\" />&nbsp;\r\n&nbsp;<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The federal position</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Federal Fundraising Law (Federal Resolution No. 8 of 1974) expressly prohibits any UAE-based association from raising money inside or outside the UAE without first obtaining a licence. Prior to obtaining a licence, an association must be registered with and the General Authority for Islamic Affairs and Endowments, and requires the submission of certain information about the applicant along with details of the activities it plans to undertake.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Dubai position</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Emirate of Dubai issued Decree No. 9 of 2015 (\"Dubai Fundraising Decree\"), which is applicable to fundraising activities which take place in the Emirate, and are regulated by Islamic Affairs and Charitable Activities Department (\"IACAD\"). The Dubai Fundraising Decree prohibits anyone (a person or a legal entity) from collecting funds, raising donations, or permitting third parties to collect donations in the Emirate of Dubai, without obtaining prior approval from IACAD. Prior to the implementation of the Dubai Fundraising Decree education providers in Dubai were not required to obtain governmental approvals for fundraising.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Since the issuance of the Dubai Fundraising Decree, some education providers have been concerned about carrying out fundraising activities due to the burden of obtaining approval and confusion as to when approvals are actually required.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Non-compliance</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Strict penalties are applied to those who will fall foul of the applicable laws and conduct fundraising activities without prior approval, up to and including:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">a fine not less than AED 5,000 and not exceeding AED 100,000; and/or</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">imprisonment of one month to one year.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">IACAD can seize the funds collected and shall redirect them for another purpose. Any bank account opened for the collection of donations will be suspended or closed and funds transferred to IACAD.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">IACAD at its sole discretion may offer an amicable settlement in lieu of imposing penalties, by:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">Issuing a written warning to the violator, and obtaining an undertaking not to repeat the same violation;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">Obligating the violator to repay double the amount of the donated funds;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">Closing the venue where the funds were raised for a period of up to one year.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Abu Dhabi and other Emirates</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Federal law applies in the other emirates, as has been explained above, but no additional laws have been implemented. However, the government departments responsible for social welfare in other emirates are reaching-out and creating opportunities for government and the private sector to work together on CSR initiatives. Thus for practical purposes, education providers in other Emirates would be encouraged to strike up a dialogue with their local regulator with regard to any CRS, or public benefit or fundraising activities even where is no need to formally register or seek particular approval.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Social Media</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/law-update-articles/developments-in-the-uae-cyber-crimes-law/\">Cyber Crimes Law 2012</a> (Federal Decree by Law No. 5 of 2012) stipulates that, any person who establishes, operates, or supervises, an \"Electronic Site\" (such as a website), or publishes information on an information network, or any other information technology tool, which calls for or promotes the collection of donations without approval, shall be punished by imprisonment and a fine not less than AED 250,000 and not exceeding AED 500,000 or both. At present, the responsible regulator under the Cyber Crimes Law, the Ministry of Economy, does not have a process for granting approval. In the Emirate of Dubai, the fact of having IACAD approval is sufficient.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Notably, the Dubai Fundraising Decree also contains provisions prohibiting the advertising of fundraising activities on social media sites in the absence of the requisite approval.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Therefore, education providers should refrain from advertising fundraising events on social media networks unless such activity is carried out with the relevant approvals.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Conclusion</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Education providers, parents groups and students are advised to carefully plan the activities to be undertaken and to obtain governmental approvals, where these are required, and to avail of the exemptions available wherever possible.</p>\r\n<em>Al Tamimi &amp; Company’s <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/lawyer/andrea-tithecott/\">Andrea Tithecott</a> regularly advises on <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/practice/regulatory/\">regulatory matters</a> which impact education providers.

Parties can readily adapt the commercial arrangement to reach a mutually agreeable position on both the development and leasing aspects.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The pre-leasing aspect may also enable the Landlord to obtain finance for the project.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Accordingly, completing an education facility on a build to suit basis represents a win-win for operators, developers and investors. That said to avoid disputes arising at a later stage, build-to-suit projects can present a number of complexities that warrant careful consideration prior to entering into the relevant contractual documentation.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">What are the key legal elements of a build to suit transaction?</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">While a detailed discussion of the issues and risk points is beyond the scope of this article, the following discussion points provide a high-level overview of the key legal elements to consider in a build to suit transaction:</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Due diligence on the land plot</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The parties should ensure that the land is appropriate for the proposed development. This may include considerations such as: ensuring the plot has appropriate planning and other regulatory approvals; ensuring the physical layout of the plot is suitable for the proposed designs; ensuring proximity to necessary infrastructure and utilities; confirming sufficient permitted GFA; licensing and free zone considerations; and other operational and design issues.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">From a commercial perspective, the location of the plot will also be important, as patrons of a school or other educational facility will generally want this to be proximate to or easily accessible from their residence. Competitor schools in or planned for the locality may also be a consideration.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Scope of works</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">A lack of clarity in the scope of the works is one of the key issues giving rise to disputes. As the rent and other obligations are often struck based on what the owner is expecting to deliver and what the tenant is expecting to receive (and the associated costs), aligning the parties expectations is key to minimising risk.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">To mitigate this risk, the parties should develop a clear scope of work at the outset. The parties should consider what plant and equipment is included in the scope of work, and whether the premises will be delivered in \"turn-key\" condition with all fit out installed as well as the extent to which equipment, furniture is included.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In the context of a school or other educational facility, the design may have to meet the requirements of the regulators such as the Dubai Knowledge and Human Development Authority. In addition, many operators will have their own design requirements. It is recommended that, unless the Tenant has such capabilities in-house, the Tenant engage suitable consultants to prepare a detailed technical brief addressing such matters as design requirements, structural loads, utility capacities and regulatory requirements. The detailed technical brief should be attached to the final agreement giving clarity to both the Landlord and Tenant as to key specifications required.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h2 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">\"Part of what makes build to suit arrangements so attractive, is that they are inherently flexible in their scope and structure. Parties can readily adapt the commercial arrangement to reach a mutually agreeable position on both the development and leasing aspects.\"</h2>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Milestones and longstop dates</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Will the owner be required to achieve completion of stages of the relevant works by milestone dates, or to procure completion of the project prior to a longstop date? If one or both of these requirements apply, what are the consequences of the Landlord failing to adhere to the relevant dates? Are delay damages payable, or does failure to meet milestone or long stop dates give rise to a right for the Tenant to terminate the agreements?</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In education projects, the date of completion can be critical as failure to achieve completion by a certain date could result in missing the window for enrolments for an entire year.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em><img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-8275\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/shutterstock_710912206.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"454\" height=\"668\" />Calculation of rent</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">How will the rent payable under the lease be determined? Considerations may include whether there will there be a base/ground rent component payable for the land.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Where the rent (or a component of the rent) is to be calculated against the project costs incurred by the owner, what costs are included/excluded for the purpose of making that calculation? Examples of common exclusions are the owner’s cost of acquiring the land (if applicable), the owner’s cost of financing the construction and the cost of delivering infrastructure to the boundary of the plot.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Where the rent is calculated with reference to the project costs or by some other methodology, the Tenant will be concerned to ensure that there is a cap on its liability. The Tenant may also require that the project costs be certified by an independent cost consultant.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Often the rent is discounted at the beginning of the term with such discounts amortised over the remainder of the term. This practice recognises that it takes some time for the school or other educational facility to attract students and therefore improves the Tenant’s cash flows until such time as the school or other educational facility is established in the market.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Appointment of contractors</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">How will the consultants and contractors undertaking the designs and works be appointed? Will mutual agreement be required? One option is for the parties to agree a short-list or pre-agree contractors and consultants whom the owner may engage. Alternatively, will there be a tender process and if yes, how will that be conducted and what role will the Tenant play in selecting the preferred tender? Will the Tenant have the right to approve the terms of the third party contracts?</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Development of detailed designs and construction drawings</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Ideally, detailed designs and specifications would be developed and attached to the contractual documents. However, often the project design is not finalised at the time when contractual documents are entered into. In those circumstances, the parties must agree on the mechanism for setting the final design requirements on which the project will be undertaken.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Variations</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Issues to consider include whether variations (by the Landlord, Tenant or both parties) will be permitted once the final designs and specifications are settled. If variations are permitted, what parameters or processes will apply to determine whether the variation will be implemented and on what grounds may a variation be refused (and the grounds of refusal may differ depending on which party is approving the variation). For example, where a variation would result in a material delay to the works program or result in a material increase in project costs, one party may be entitled to withhold its approval.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Retention of a specialist consultant by the tenant</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Unless the Tenant retains specialist architects and/or engineers in house, it is recommended that the Tenant obtain its own architectural and/or engineering consulting firm throughout the design, construction and handover phases of the project. The Tenant’s consultant may assist with the following tasks:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">ensuring the design brief meets the Tenant’s and any regulator’s requirements;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">where permitted under the contractual documentation, consulting with the Landlord on the appointment of any contractor or sub-contractor;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">supervising the contractor and sub-contractors to ensure they are meeting the design brief;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">assessing any requests from the Landlord or the Tenant to make variations and evaluating the cost of such variations;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">cost consulting; and</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">assessing whether milestones are met and whether the school is ready for handover.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Independent Experts</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">If disputes arise during the process, this could lead to delays in completing or the handover of the project, particularly where the disputes may be of a technical nature.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Whilst each party having its own consultant engaged may reduce the likelihood of disputes, it will not remove the risk completely as it remains possible that the respective parties’ consultants will disagree.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In these circumstances, it can be useful to have an independent consultant appointed to mediate and determine such disputes as an expert.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Documentation</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Transaction documents from a Tenant’s perspective would typically include an agreement to lease and the occupational lease. Where acting for the Landlord, ground lease, financing, construction and development management documentation may be required.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The terms of the occupational lease are often critical, particularly given that the parties generally require a long-term arrangement. The parties should accordingly consider carefully the maintaining and repairing obligations and obligations for other outgoings, taxation issues, rent reviews, reinstatement obligations and insurance as well as the other usual Landlord and Tenant considerations.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Obligations in relation to registration of leases and any resulting registration fees should also be considered.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"></h3>\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Conclusion</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Build to suit arrangements are not the only option for private school or educational institutions when setting up operations however they provide a useful option from, both the Landlord’s and the educational institutions perspective.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Readers will appreciate that there are a large number of issues to be considered prior to entering into build to suit projects and the above snapshot is by no means exhaustive. However, ensuring that the parties have a clear understanding and agreed position on these types of issues goes a long way to ensuring a successful project.</p>\r\n<em>Al Tamimi &amp; Company’s, <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/lawyer/jeremy-scott/\">Jeremy Scott</a>, regularly advises on various <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/practice/real-estate/\">real estate matters</a> in the UAE and other countries in the GCC.

Conversely, input VAT incurred in connection with exempt supplies is not generally recoverable.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In the UAE, the supply of educational services and related goods and services for nurseries, preschool, school education, and higher educational institutions owned or funded by Federal or local Government is subject to VAT at the zero-rate.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">For a supply of educational services to qualify for zero-rating, the following conditions prescribed under the UAE VAT Executive Regulations should be fulfilled:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">the supply of educational services must be provided in accordance with a curriculum recognised by the federal/local competent government entity;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">the supplier of the educational services is an educational institution which is accredited by the federal/local competent government entity; and</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">where the supplier of educational services is a higher education institution, the institution is either (i) owned by the federal or local government; or (ii) receiving at least 50% of its annual funding directly from the federal or local government.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Qualifying educational institutions may also avail of the zero-rating treatment in respect of the following:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">a supply of goods or services that is directly related to the provision of a zero-rated educational service; and</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">printed and digital reading material which are related to the curriculum of an education.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Are there any exceptions to the zero-rating rule?</em></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Not all supplies made by qualifying educational institutions benefit from this zero-rating rule. The following supplies are specifically excluded from this treatment and will therefore be subject to VAT at the standard rate:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">goods and services supplied to persons who are not enrolled in the educational institution;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">any goods other than educational materials provided by the educational institution;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">uniforms or any other clothing required to be worn by the educational institution;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">electronic devices in relation to educational services;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">food and beverages at the educational institution;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">recreational field trips;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">extracurricular activities provided for an additional fee; and</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">student organisation memberships.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Additionally, the supply of residential accommodation for students or school pupils is exempt from VAT. This means that qualifying educational institutions will be unable to recover any input VAT paid on expenses that are related to the supply of residential accommodation.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Would qualifying educational institutions need to register for VAT in the UAE?</em></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Qualifying educational institutions are required to register for VAT in the UAE if the value of their annual taxable turnover meets the mandatory registration threshold of AED 375,000. In calculating the value of taxable turnover, the value of standard rated and zero-rated supplied made by the qualifying educational institutions must be taken into account.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Qualifying educational institutions may also apply for an exception to register for VAT in the UAE if they make wholly zero-rated supplies. If the application is approved, the educational institution will be exempted from any VAT obligations such as filing VAT returns. However, in doing so, educational institutions will be unable to recover any input VAT incurred on their expenses. In determining whether to apply for the exception to register for VAT, educational institutions should carefully assess the potential VAT compliance costs against the amount of recoverable input VAT.</p>\r\n\r\n<h2 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">\"While the primary supply of most educational services is zero-rated in the UAE, the VAT treatment of some activities may not always be straightforward. Given that the VAT regime is still in its early stages of implementation, it is expected that the VAT legislation would continue to evolve. Educational institutions should continuously ensure that the correct VAT treatment is applied to all of its transactions.\"</h2>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The VAT issues</h3>\r\n<img class=\"wp-image-8218 alignright\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"541\" height=\"341\" />\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>What type of supplies are \"directly related\" to the provision of a zero-rated educational service?</em></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">As noted above, a supply of goods or services made by educational institutions is treated as zero-rated where the supply is directly related to the provision of a zero-rated educational service. However, the UAE VAT Executive Regulations do not provide further guidance on what constitutes supplies which are \"directly related\" to the provision of a zero-rated educational service. This uncertainty will likely give rise to challenges in ascertaining the VAT treatment.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">For example, a qualifying educational institution provides music courses. As part of the course requirements, students of the institution are required to perform in a musical concert held at the institution. Only the students’ family members and friends who received a special invitation are allowed to attend the musical concert. The concert tickets are sold at a reduced fee to cover some of the costs of running the musical concert. Can the supply of the musical performances be treated as a supply \"directly related\" to the provision of an educational service?</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">It is arguable that the supply of the musical performance may be \"directly related\" to the provision of educational service considering that:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">the principal supply of the qualifying educational institution is zero-rated educational service; and\\</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">the practical training arising from the supply of musical performances forms a necessary and essential part of the curriculum;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">therefore, the supply of musical performances is ancillary to the principal supply; and</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">the musical concert is not in competition with any commercial enterprise and not generating additional profits.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">On the other hand, the supply of the musical performances may also be regarded as falling under the scope of the exception to the zero-rating rule, and therefore be subject to VAT at the standard rate. It can be contended that the musical performances are supplied to third parties, rather than the intended recipient of educational services, i.e., the students. Further, the supply of musical performances itself will generally be treated as standard rated if it was conducted in the course of business.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>What is the VAT treatment of grants and sponsorships?</em></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">It is common for the government or third parties to provide educational institutions with financial support such as grants or sponsorships. While the VAT legislation does not prescribe the VAT treatment of grants or sponsorships, the general principle is that if a monetary grant or sponsorship is freely given without receiving anything in return, the grant or sponsorship will not constitute consideration for any supply. Therefore, the grant or sponsorship would fall outside the scope of UAE VAT.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Conversely, if the grantor or sponsor receives a benefit or something in return from the educational institution for the monetary grant or sponsorship, the grant or sponsorship may be subject to VAT. The benefit provided by the educational institution will be rated as a taxable supply and the educational institution will have to account for VAT on the benefit. Currently, determining what constitutes a benefit is a grey area. As such, it is open to question as to whether an inclusion of the sponsor in a list of supporters in a notice or naming a university building after the sponsor may be considered as benefits.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"></h3>\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Final remarks</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Generally, the primary supply of most educational services is zero-rated in the UAE to the extent the educational services are provided in accordance with an accredited curriculum by qualifying educational institutions. Notwithstanding this, the VAT treatment of some activities may not always be straightforward. Given that the VAT regime is still in its early stages of implementation, it is expected that the VAT legislation will continue to evolve. Educational institutions should continuously ensure that the correct VAT treatment is applied to all of its transactions, in compliance with the current VAT legislation.</p>\r\n<em>Al Tamimi &amp; Company’s <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/practice/tax/\">tax team</a> regularly advises on VAT and other tax matters.

	(226854,8200,'content','<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The General Data Protection Regulations (\"GDPR\") came into effect on 25 May 2018. The <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/law-update-articles/minding-your-own-business-the-extra-territorial-application-of-the-eus-data-protection-regulation/\">GDPR</a>, which replaced the EU’s Data Protection Directive of 1995, represents a significant expansion of personal privacy rights for EU residents.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The politically challenging task of escalating privacy protection from a directive to a binding regulation began in 2009 and involved protracted negotiations among the European Commission (the EU executive body) and its two legislative chambers, the Council of the European Union and the European Parliament. This was partially motivated by the desire for uniform protections for all EU residents and partially necessitated by the needs of regulated entities for consistent compliance requirements across the EU.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Why should Middle East institutions pay attention to GDPR?</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><img class=\"wp-image-8219 alignright\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"482\" height=\"369\" /> It is widely known that the GDPR has more enforceable legal status in comparison to the previous Data Protection Directive, and it is also substantively more robust in a number of significant ways. The most notable of these for entities located in the Middle East is that, unlike the Data Protection Directive (which mandated compliance by entities with a physical EU presence, such as a processing center or even a server), the GDPR’s coverage extends to entities with no physical EU footprint if they process personal data of EU data subjects residing in the EU. This limited extraterritoriality, while a significant expansion of the reach of EU law to entities outside the EU, does not attach to EU citizens abroad. As such, a Middle East entity involved in a data transaction with an EU resident in the Middle East, for instance, would not be subject to the GDPR; the same entity engaging in significant and intentional cyber-transactions with EU residents would be.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Why education providers should pay attention to the GDPR?</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Middle East-based Education institutions newly affected by the extraterritorial reach of GDPR are those that target distance education programmes to EU residents who are physically located in one of the member states. Such programmes were not initially subject to EU privacy law under the Data Protection Directive if they did not have infrastructure within the EU, but are now covered under the GDPR, even if they have no physical presence within the EU. However, Article 3 of the GDPR suggests that incidental transactions, such as the mere availability of goods or services via a website, are not automatic grounds for subjecting non-EU entities to the GDPR.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">On the face of it, it is tempting to believe that Education institutions that enrol EU residents in the Middle East are entirely exempt from compliance with the GDPR. This would certainly be true for EU residents who initiate their admission application process from outside the EU. In the case where EU applicants start the admissions process from their home countries and obtain visas to enter the Middle East after gaining admission to eligible programmes, the GDPR will apply and such institutions would need to demonstrate compliance. In essence, active student recruitment campaigns targeting EU residents could subject the data collected from such students, whether via automated or non-automated means, to compliance requirements under the GDPR. It may take a few years for a more precise understanding of how the GDPR will be further defined, interpreted, and enforced by the EU and national data protection authorities of its member states. At such early stage, it is probably unlikely that the most expansive interpretation of the regulation’s extraterritorial application would be immediately enforced against non-EU entities. It is clear however that institutions with significant engagement with the EU, either in the form of physical presence or of distance-delivered services, should take immediate steps to ensure compliance with the GDPR.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Whose data does GDPR protect?</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Personal data of all living individuals physically within the EU (\"EU data subjects\") are covered by the GDPR. The regulation makes no distinctions based on individual’s permanent places of residence or nationality. The GDPR applies to all such individual’s personal data, defined as any information that can be used to, directly or indirectly, identify a person. These include not only such obvious information as educational, financial, employment-related, and health data, but also photographs, personal phone numbers, and IP addresses.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">How should the education sector prepare for GDPR?</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Education providers in the Middle East should consider a number of action points as part of their GDPR compliance preparations as follows:</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><strong>Data Review</strong>: A comprehensive review should be undertaken to determine (i) what personal data is currently held, (ii) how that data was acquired, and (iii) for what purpose it was acquired. Education providers should consider whether they have obtained and hold such personal data in accordance with the requirements of GDPR. If they have not, such data should be deleted, or consideration should be given as to how its continued storage / use may be rendered GDPR-compliant.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><strong>Privacy policies</strong>: privacy policies are a key element of the new regime. Education providers should review their existing privacy policies, and make all amendments necessary to bring them into line with the GDPR’s requirements.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><strong>Consent</strong>: this is unlikely to be the most appropriate lawful basis for the processing of personal data by Education providers going forward. The GDPR requires that consent must be able to be withdrawn as easily as it is given and processing must immediately stop. Clearly, this is not practical given Education providers’ obligations to protect the safety and welfare of their students. Education establishments will need to look to other bases provided in the GDPR to ensure that their processing activities are lawful. This is a more complex legal question, and will be based on a case-by-case basis, the operation of the education provider in relation to the data.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Consent must be given for the processing or flow of personal data to third-parties, so in order to become GDPR compliant, education providers must be aware of where various pieces of data are going and why.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><strong>Data Security and Third-Party Agreements</strong>: a comprehensive, written information security programme should be developed and implemented to protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of personal data held. A review of arrangements with all third-parties engaged to handle, store or otherwise process personal data collected and/or stored by the institution should be undertaken. The GDPR requires all data controllers to have binding contracts with the parties that process data on their behalf. For education providers, it is important that all current service level agreements and other contracts with third-party suppliers are carefully reviewed and amended to ensure they are GDPR-compliant.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8220\" style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400;\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/9.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"944\" height=\"160\" /></h3>&nbsp;\r\n&nbsp;<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Supervisory authorities and penalties</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Under the GDPR, EU member states have to designate qualified supervisory authorities with specified oversight, investigatory, and enforcement powers to implement its requirements . These authorities will oversee compliance, provide consultation and prior approvals, and receive and administratively adjudicate complaints against controllers and processors. They can also impose fines of up to two percent of the global revenues for certain penalties, and up to four percent of such revenues for more serious ones.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Just as important as the supervisory authorities’ power to impose penalties is the consultative role they are assigned in reviewing mandatory data protection impact assessments that data controllers and processors must regularly perform in connection with high-risk processing activities prior to implementing them.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Conclusion</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The GDPR took years to be adopted, and it may be safe to assume that it will take years before its real impact and practical compliance requirements become fully settled.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Education providers in the Middle East with EU-based operations and those with significant numbers of EU residents as students — particularly those delivering distance education programmes to such students within the EU — should start to map out a strategy of implementing GDPR-compliant practices now.</p>'),

Bahrain has traditionally enjoyed popularity as a higher education destination in the GCC region owing to its strategic location, quality of life, competitive tuition and living costs, and liberal culture.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Applications to establish Private Higher Education Institutions (\"PHEIs\") in Bahrain must be made to the Secretariat General of the HEC. The application is the first step towards starting new programmes or launching a new institution and the HEC’s criteria for such applications includes the quality of education provided, meeting the economic needs of Bahrain, the quality of faculty staff, the curriculum and the method of teaching. The HEC usually decides upon the application within four (4) months upon submission.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">All foreign private education institutions with headquarters outside Bahrain must be in compliance with laws and regulations applicable in their home countries, in addition to those applicable in Bahrain.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">PHEIs in Bahrain may be established in the following forms:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">Institute - an institution that awards a diploma, associate diploma or both that are less than a BSc.

An institution that holds a full license to operate must submit its application for accreditation within twelve months of coming into operation. The accreditation is awarded on the basis of the institution meeting standards established periodically by the HEC. The process entails an on-site inspection that focuses on the quality assurance processes of the institution in areas like governance, academic management, research, student welfare and support, teaching and learning facilities, amongst others. Accreditations are usually awarded to institutions for a period of 4 years (or lesser at the HEC’s discretion), before the expiry of which the institution must apply for re-accreditation and undergo the entire evaluation process again.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Bahrain is expected to attract more than 20,000 students into its higher education system over the next decade, of which almost 35% are expected to be international students. There is a need to increase Bahrain’s higher education capacity, thus making it a ripe time for investments in the higher education sector. Foreign higher education providers in Bahrain can benefit from the neighbouring key markets of Saudi Arabia (particularly its eastern province) and Kuwait, from where most international students in the GCC hail.</p>\r\nTraditionally, the majority of students in Bahrain have enrolled in business, finance or IT related courses. However, enrolment trends across the GCC indicate an increasing interest in science and technology courses due to higher job opportunities arising from the oil and gas industry, increasing infrastructural and construction activities as well as the rising interest in sectors like space exploration. There remains immense scope for foreign higher education providers to venture into engineering, sciences and technology as countries across the GCC look to diversify their economies and boost innovative competitiveness.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;'),

Additionally, Egypt has also been facing several chronic problems that have gradually worsened over the years including in the health and education sectors. However, in the last four years, private and public investment in education has increased significantly.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Most recently, EFG-Hermes acquired a group of schools in an EGP 1 billion transaction from the Talaat Mostafa Group. The schools will be managed by the UAE-based education company, GEMS. The partnership between GEMS and EFG-Hermes plans to invest up to USD 300 million on school acquisitions in the coming years. There have also been serious efforts to modernize the education sector from elementary schools to universities. Vision 2030 for education in Egypt along with the Minister of Education’s efforts to overhaul the current system are ambitious and promising.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The purpose of this article is to highlight further opportunities in the Egyptian Education Sector as well as some key challenges and related legislative developments.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"></h3>\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Constitutional Background</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Education has always been a right enshrined in the Egyptian Constitution but its most recent iteration in Article 19 of the 2014 Constitution is one that offers more legal guarantees promising to raise the level of education and ensure free education to all, while spending no less than 4% of the government’s budget on education. This is certainly a challenging goal to achieve especially when considering the education sector’s longstanding problems.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Challenges to the Education Sector</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Overpopulation and lack of resources</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">With a rising population of over 100 million people and limited resources, Egypt’s public education struggles a great deal, especially considering high poverty rates which preclude a majority of the population from seeking private education. The average number of students in a public classroom in Egypt is 45, while every year an additional 500,000-700,000 students enter schools. This is partially due to an infrastructure problem that impedes the creation of sufficient capacity. Even though there are 55,000 schools across the country, far more schools are still required to meet the challenges ahead. This problem is worsened when it comes to higher education, as only 31% of 18-22 year-olds are enrolled in a university.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Lack of quality public education</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The natural result of overcrowded schools and underfunded education is a dramatic reduction in quality. Egypt is ranked 141st in terms of quality of basic education and only has one university ranked among the best universities worldwide. However, this problem is further exacerbated by a lack of qualified and well-educated teachers, due to a lack of training and meagre wages. The lack of quality higher education creates a gap between the requirements of the job market and the skills and knowledge obtained by graduates. This is exemplified by the fact that 35% of graduates of higher education institutes are unemployed.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Vision for the Future and New Developments</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Egypt has given a prominent position to education in its national strategy, to be achieved by 2030. By introducing radical changes to both basic and higher education, the Egyptian government is aiming to developing a new generation of competent Egyptians that are capable of competing on the global stage.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In terms of basic education, the Government is seeking to develop existing schools, introduce a set of new schools established on a model inspired by the Japanese education system and restructuring the technical schools to turn them into technology-focused schools that provide modern and up to date education.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">As for higher education, the strategy is based on three pillars: i) International Branch Campuses (IBCs), ii) \"Ahleya\" Universities, which are non-profit and non-governmental universities and iii) technology institutes.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In relation to IBCs, 220 acres in the new administrative capital have already been allocated to IBCs and a number of universities from Austria, Canada, Hungary, Sweden, UK and USA have been granted approval to setup IBCs with many of them targeting to commence operations in the academic year 2018-2019.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Moreover, the Government is working on establishing research centres specialising in biotechnology, renewable energy, AI and genetics and thirty-two \"Ahleya\" universities by 2030. It is also planning on working with its international partners to improve the ranking of public Egyptian universities.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em><img class=\"wp-image-8255 alignright\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/August-Edition-DPS_Page_28_Image_0001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"359\" />Legislative Developments</em></p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">On the legislative side, the legislative map for the coming year includes enactment of laws regulating IBCs, technology institutes and university-affiliated hospitals as well as amending laws regulating private and \"Ahleya\" universities and public universities.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Among those laws, the International Branch Campus Law no. 162 of 2018 (\"IBC Law\") stands as the most significant given the novelty of the concept to Egypt and the significant potential investment its enactment will bring. The IBC Law distinguishes between three different entities: the Parent University, which is the university that will establish a branch, bearing its name, in Egypt, the Branch, which will be the IBC established in Egypt and the Educational Institution, which is the institution that will be established to host the Branch and run the administrative matters relating to the Branch.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Branch will be established by virtue of a presidential decree. The Branch will be able to benefit from a wide array of benefits provided by Egyptian laws, including the new investment law, (Law.72 of 2017) which provides for tax benefits. The Branch will be required to:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>abide by all Egyptian laws and regulations;</li>\r\n 	<li>submit a list of all Non-Egyptian nominees for senior management and academic staff positions to the Ministry of Higher Education, prior to the execution of their appointment, for approval;</li>\r\n 	<li>have at least fifty (50) percent of its student body formed by Egyptian nationals;</li>\r\n 	<li>provide its students with the same academic material used at the Parent University;</li>\r\n 	<li>award the same degree as the Parent University;</li>\r\n 	<li>allocate a number of scholarships and grants to its students and academic staff to enable them to study and attend training sessions at the Parent University; and</li>\r\n 	<li>present to the Ministry of Higher Education a five-year vision and expansion plan.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Conclusion</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Though the Egyptian education sector has many challenges ahead, it also possesses many opportunities for positive reform to be created by private investments. Private schools and universities are becoming increasingly necessary while the government’s vision for education will also create many business opportunities for education-centric businesses. This includes supplying public schools with modern facilities, training teachers and creating new curricula. Many foreign investors are recognizing the potential in the education market and investing heavily in Egypt, while local investors are doubling-down on their investments in education by constantly expanding their schools and universities.</p>\r\n<em>Al Tamimi &amp; Company’s <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/practice/corporate-structuring/\">Corporate Structuring</a> and <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/practice/corporate-mergers-acquisitions/\">Corporate Commercial</a> team regularly advise on education transactions and re-structuring.

The Manual is the first tangible product of the newly established NCP and is a key indicator of its strategy and approach.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">A letter from the NCP’s Chairman of Board of Directors (Mr. Mohammad Mazyad Al-Tuwajiri) is included as a preface to the document and makes explicit the intention of the NCP to keep the Manual under continuous review; updates will be made as needed to ensure that the privatization and PPP programmes are consistent with international practice.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Hard on the heels of the Manual a draft Private Sector Participation Law has also been published – giving further authority and depth to the contents of the Manual. That draft law was open for public consultation until 29 July 2018. The combination of the Manual and the draft law will be powerful enablers of private sector participation in the economy.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Of particular interest to foreign investors will be draft articles 56 and 57, which permit participation in healthcare and education PPP schemes. This is consistent with the developing approach of the Saudi Arabian General Investment Authority (\"SAGIA\") which facilitates <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/law-update-articles/vision-2030-and-the-transformation-of-education-in-saudi-arabia-one-year-on/\">foreign ownership of schools</a> subject to Ministry of Education approval.</p>\r\n<img class=\" wp-image-8221 alignleft\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/10.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"449\" height=\"214\" />\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">A frequent refrain of the contracting and advisory communities in the Kingdom has been that the Government Tenders and Procurement Law (\"GTPL\") regime is not suitable for complex privatizations and public/private partnerships – for example, the GTPL did not permit a multi-phase bidding process. The risk with the new Manual was that the GTPL would continue to apply in the gaps thereby causing some uncertainty. Moreover, the GTPL is itself in the process of reform with a new draft law in circulation.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">These concerns have very recently been addressed. Royal Decree No. (101) dated 20/10/1439 AH (04/07/2018) and published on 18 July 2018 specifically disapplies the GTPL from privatization contracts. It provides as follows:</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>\"All contracts, necessary for execution of the privatization operations shall not be governed by the Government Tenders and Procurement Law.\"</em></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">An analogous provision directed at PPP schemes is included in the new draft law, which contains (at Chapter 15) a comprehensive list of other laws which are proposed to be adjusted in order to facilitate private sector participation. However, Royal Decree No.101 is now in force and provides a very important first step – even if this is limited only to addressing the GTPL.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Manual is a decisive and welcome step to break away from the GTPL \"straightjacket\" which will obviate the need for enabling decrees for these projects.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">So what does the Manual say?</h3>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">First, the Manual is crystal clear that it must be applied and there is no escape or workaround the Manual. Deviations from the Manual’s provisions require explicit NCP approval (more on which below). The well-understood procedural steps in the GTPL for managing receipt of bids are largely replicated and amplified/adjusted as necessary. The Manual also provides for an appeal process for disgruntled parties with the establishment of a new appellate body – \"the Privatization Procurement Appeals Board\". Further detail on this new body will be available later in the year (its procedures are already elaborated under the draft law).</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Second, the Manual provides clarity and transparency around the gateway processes for approval of projects. The four \"file\" approval framework (Pre-Feasibility Study; Partial Business Case; Full Business Case and post competition Final Business Case) is consistent with best practice elsewhere. This process is likely to give confidence to the market that a project will stand a good chance of closing. The process is designed to identify key challenges as early as possible in the process, for example, issues relating to offtakes and government guarantees (if any) on termination must be exposed at the Partial Business Case stage. The process envisaged is similar in many respects to the old \"negotiated procedure\" under EU procurement rules.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Third, there are some interesting innovations. For example, the notion that the private sector actors can approach the NCP with projects (and potentially be rewarded for their origination efforts) is clearly intended to encourage investors and contractors to have a fresh look at the National Transformation Program with a view to engaging with the NCP pro-actively.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Manual requires a draft privatization contract to be in play at the time of File Three (Full Business Case) submission to the NCP as part of the overall Procurement Plan. However, the Manual also signposts not only a Privatization Standard Contract – deviations from which must be approved – but also a standard Heads of Terms. The Manual provides a process for securing deviations from the NCP but neither the standard contract nor the standard heads of terms are yet in circulation.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Comment</h3>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Despite all the good elements of the Manual, there remain some issues which will have to be clarified under the draft law (which have not been addressed by Royal Decree 101). So, for example, the draft law will allow arbitration in government contracts (Article 54) with prior approval. Currently, government contracts may not provide for an arbitration-based dispute resolution process unless this has been approved by the Royal Court. Foreign investors will likely monitor this aspect very closely.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">There are also areas where additional clarity would be useful, for example, whether it is acceptable for bidders (whether in consortium or not) to be able to contract with public authorities through a special purpose vehicle without exposing their parent entities to joint and several liability. The Manual certainly seems to anticipate the use of SPVs but bidders may consider it desirable to obtain the explicit approval of the NCP at the RFQ stage for the structure of their bid and the scope of any underpinning parent company guarantee. Likewise, on the government side of the equation a number of new companies are being established to act as the counterparties under PPP style arrangements; the level of budgetary commitment and/or sovereign guarantee in these structures will have to be assessed on a case-by-case basis.</p>\r\nIn the last year or so there have been a number of changes in KSA corporate, foreign investment and banking laws which combine to bolster the realization of Vision 2030. The Manual is an important step in that journey. In combination with the new draft law (and Royal Decree 101) it is a welcome and much needed embellishment of the Vision 2030 and the NCP enabling process. The draft law, once enacted, will fire the starting pistol for foreign investment in education PPP schemes.'),

Similar to various definitions in other legal systems, Article (2) of the Enforcement of Foreign Judgments Law defines a \"foreign judgment\" as:</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>\"every judgment given by a court outside the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan (including religious courts) in civil proceedings and ordering the payment of a sum of money or giving judgment in respect of moveable property or for the settlement of an account, including awards in arbitral proceedings should such awards be deemed enforceable as a court decision under the laws of the country in which it was issued.\"</em></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-8257\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/August-Edition-DPS_Page_30_Image_0001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"405\" height=\"985\" />Overview of Enforcement Procedures</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Foreign judgments may be enforced in Jordan through an application to be submitted before the competent court; the Court of First Instance (\"Competent Court\") which is not required to re-examine of the merits of the foreign decision.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In summary of the articles of the Enforcement of Foreign Judgments Law, the Competent Court will enforce a foreign judgment if the judgment is final (i.e. not subject to appeal) between the parties; the court that granted the judgment was competent and had jurisdiction over the parties; regular proceedings were followed that allowed the losing party a chance to be heard; no fraud was worked upon the foreign tribunal court; and enforcement will not violate the public policy of the enforcing state.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Although the concept of enforcement of foreign judgments has been used and adopted to avoid resources spent on re-litigation and to harmonize international court decisions and judgments, the Competent Court, by virtue of Article (7) of the Enforcement of Foreign Judgments Law, is afforded discretion to deny foreign judgments if the foreign procedure may be viewed as deficient, or the outcome of the foreign litigation is considered objectionable. By virtue of such reasons, the application of enforcing the foreign award must be disapproved by the Competent Court, sua sponte. These reasons are:</p>\r\n\r\n<ol>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">If the tribunal that issued the foreign judgment lacked jurisdiction;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">If the judgment debtor had not carried his/her business within the jurisdiction of the tribunal that issued the foreign judgment or if he/she was not residing within its jurisdiction and did not voluntarily appear before it and did not submit to its jurisdiction;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">If the judgment debtor was not served with a notice to attend by the tribunal that issued the foreign judgment and did not appear before the court although he was residing or carrying his/her business within its jurisdiction;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">If the foreign judgment has been obtained by means fraud;</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">If the judgment debtor established to the satisfaction of the Jordanian courts that the foreign judgment has not yet become final (and conclusive);</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">If the foreign judgment was issued in a cause of action that will not be entertained by Jordanian courts because it is either contradictory to public order or to public morality; or</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">If the foreign judgment was issued by a court that does not allow the enforcement of judgments issued by Jordanian courts.</li>\r\n</ol>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h2 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"></h2>\r\n<h2 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">\"Any judgment given by a court outside of Jordan … may be enforced against a judgment debtor that resides in Jordan…\"</h2>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Attachment</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Subject to Jordanian law, a foreign judgment may be used by the judgment creditor to collect damages. The applicable laws allow for creation of broad range of security interests over a wide range of assets; the legal framework recognizes both possessory and non-possessory pledges and attachments over movable assets and rights in addition to the ability to place a lien over real-estate and properties, garnishing the judgment debtor’s salary, or attaching the judgment debtor’s personal property.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Similar to other counties, the Jordanian legal system entitles the judgment debtor to seize property to ensure satisfaction of a judgment. Article (141) of the Civil Procedures Law No. (24) of the year 1988 as amended (\"Civil Procedures Law\") allows for the judgment creditor to request the provisional attachment of assets belonging to the judgment debtor based on the foreign judgment, as it states:</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>\"1- A creditor may apply to the judge of urgent matters or the court based on what it has in the form of evidence and documentation or based on a foreign judgment or arbitral award for the provisional attachment, whether before filing a claim, at the time of filing, or while it is being reviewed, of the debtor’s moveable and immovable assets and assets in the possession of third parties until a judgment is issued in the claim..\"</em></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Such request is conditional upon the judgment creditor providing monetary insurance legal guarantee, or bank guarantee by a capacitated guarantor the amount and type of which is determined by the Court or the Judge of Urgent Matters. Such insurance or guarantee is for the purposes of guaranteeing any harm or damage that may be incurred by the judgment debtor should it be proven that the judgment creditor is not entitled to enforce its foreign judgment.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The decision regarding the application for the provisional attachment is done ex parte, whereby the judgment creditor files said application along with its supporting evidence with the Judge of Urgent Matters.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Of course, not every kind of property owned by the judgment debtor is subject to attachment. The Civil Procedures Law provides for exemptions for certain household items, clothing, tools, and other essentials. Additionally, and although the judgment debtor’s salary may be subject to attachment, but a certain amount is exempt in order to allow for personal support or for family support.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Execution</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Once recognized, a foreign judgment gets enforced in Jordan in the same manner as any other judgment. For example, enforcement can be effected through seizure and sale of real or personal property, garnishment of debts payable to the judgment debtor and, in certain cases, an order for the appointment of an equitable receiver.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Subject to the Execution Law No. (25) of 2007, once a final and conclusive decision is issued by the Competent Court regarding the application of enforcing a foreign judgment, such decision can then be executed against the judgment debtor via the Execution Department.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Under the Jordanian enforcement system, each court has its own enforcement department that is located in each city’s Court of First Instance. This department is solely responsible for the enforcement of decisions that have been issued in its jurisdiction.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">At this stage, the provisional attachment (if any) may be converted into an executory attachment (following the submission of an application to the Execution Department for such conversion) and the judgment debtor’s assets are transferred upon the court’s instructions to the judgment creditor. Principles of agency or alter ego would not be applied to permit enforcement against a third party who is not a judgment debtor. A judgment creditor who seeks to impose liability on a third party under principles such as agency or alter ego is required to do so before the foreign tribunal prior to the conclusive issuance of the foreign judgment and to the issuance of the decision of such enforcement by the Competent Court. After a judgment has been issued, the Competent Court has no power to amend or vary the foreign judgment.</p>\r\nIn conclusion and in light of the above, it may be observed that in spite of a number of grounds the Competent Court has to refuse the enforcement of a foreign judgment, the process appears reasonable. And although arbitration is generally more favoured in cross-border transactions, especially with the adoption of New York Convention on the Recognition and the Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards by almost 160 countries, the concept of enforcing foreign judgments still gives rise to international litigation proving that its awards, similar to arbitral awards, can similarly be enforced in Jordan.'),

This has been reflected in various new laws, regulations and amendments coming into force during the past year.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In this article, we highlight some of the more interesting recent legislative changes.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;<img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8267 size-full\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/August-Edition-DPS_Page_31_Image_0002d.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1096\" height=\"310\" />&nbsp;\r\n&nbsp;<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Consumer Protection Law amendment released</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Law Number 7 of 2018 amending Law 8 of 2008 on Consumer Protection was published in the Qatari Official Gazette Number 11 dated 4 July 2018.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The amendment, as expected, imposes stricter administrative punishments, in addition to the existing administrative and criminal sanctions, which include imprisonment and/or fines.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The amendment extends Article 18 bis, which is the provision that grants the Consumer Protection Department’s the authority to temporary close the infringing shop or place of business for a period not exceeding one month for the first violation, two months for the second violation, and three months for any further violations.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In addition to publishing the closure decision on the Ministry’s website and in two daily newspapers, the amendment imposes a notice of violation to be placed on the offending shop or place of business alerting consumers to the reason of the closure being due to violations of the Consumer Protection Law.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">This amendment adds to the significant role of the Qatari Consumer Protection Department, by further publicising the violation to consumers, making the administrative action more effective and preventive.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Issuance of the Patents Implementing Regulation</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Patents Implementing Regulation Number 153 of 2018 was also published in the Qatari Official Gazette Number 11 dated 4 July 2018.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Patents in Qatar are governed by the provisions of Law Number 30 of 2006. This law has not been updated since its issuance, and was put into place without being accompanied by any implementing regulations.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">However, the recent developments, including the issuance of the long awaited implementing regulations, are in line with the Qatar National Vision 2030, including the national strategic plan improving IP enforcement and protection, and are assigned to a specialised committee in accordance with decision Number 45 of 2017. Accordingly, further improvements and regulations are also expected to be issued soon.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The new patents implementing regulation specifies procedures related to registration of patents, including granting the Patent Office the authority to accept submission of supporting documents within a maximum six month period of filing a patent application. In case of non-compliance within the six month period, the patent application shall be considered abandoned, in accordance with Article 2 of the regulation.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">However, the maximum period granted by the Patent Office for filing supporting documents in cases of priority claims is three months, as per Article 3 of the regulation.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Article 8 of the regulations confirm that the Patent Office may use the assistance of experts in the relevant field within the examination process, and the applicant is to cover the cost of such experts.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">These regulations are expected to enhance the efficiency of the patent registration process in Qatar.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"></h3>\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Law on Competitiveness of National Products to be released</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In June 2018, Qatar’s Advisory Council discussed a draft law on supporting the competitiveness of national products and combating harmful practices in international trade. The draft law was referred to the Financial and Economic Affairs Committee for its examination and for the Committee to report back to the Council with their comments.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The draft law confirms complying with Qatar’s international obligations as per the World Trade Organisation (WTO) Agreements signed by Qatar.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">This law also supports Qatar’s aim to achieve self-sufficiency and food security.</p>&nbsp;\r\n&nbsp;<img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8273\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/shutterstock_274361663.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"364\" />&nbsp;\r\n&nbsp;<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Foreign investment and Trade - Agreements signed and further laws under discussion</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Qatar launched direct maritime shipping lines with many counties including Kuwait, Oman, India, Pakistan, Turkey and Iraq, in addition to Jordan. This was in line with the entry into bilateral agreements with many countries with the aim of improving trade relationships and encouraging foreign investment.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Furthermore, Qatar has announced that the cabinet had approved draft legislation governing investment of non-Qatari capital in the economy. It is said that the legislation will replace Law No 13 from 2000 to further open up the country to foreign investment in all sectors with several exceptions. The draft under discussion was not disclosed, accordingly, the details of this amendment are still unconfirmed, and it is uncertain when this law will be issued.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Another law closely related to foreign investment is also expected to be released, administering ownership of real estate by non-Qatari citizens. The law is likely to define certain areas on which such ownership is permissible and the conditions to apply to the same, as well as granting heirs of the owner the same ownership rights after the death of the owner.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Conclusion</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Encouraging foreign investment is essential for economic development. By providing the needed legal tools to safeguard the interests of domestic industries, consumers, and foreign investors, Qatar would appear to be moving in the right direction, by developing a robust and balanced legal and economic system.</p>\r\n<em>Our <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/practice/intellectual-property/\">IP department</a> has a dedicated team of experienced practitioners, who can assist in a wide range of contentious and non-contentious matters related to IP, including legal protection, contractual matters and litigation.

In this article, we summarise key aspects of the \"Outsourcing Rules\" with a focus on the outsourcing of information technology services.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Outsourcing is a business practice in which a business engages external service providers to perform certain business functions, instead of having those functions performed by its own personnel. The increasing complexity of the outsourcing arrangements adopted by banks, and the potential harm to consumers from offshoring arrangements out of reach of regulators, led to a 2005 report by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The report contained recommendations about tightening the way in which banks outsourced their activities. SAMA subsequently issued the Outsourcing Rules in 2008.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The stated objective of the Outsourcing Rules is to provide guidance to banks on how to arrange outsourcing, while remaining compliant with the obligations under their banking licences. The Outsourcing Rules apply to branches of foreign banks in the Kingdom, as well as to domestic banks licensed under the Banking Control Law issued under Royal Decree No. M/5 dated 22/2/1386H (12 June 1966).</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Engaging third party service providers can enable banks to reduce costs and obtain other efficiencies, but it may also expose banks to a variety of risks. These can include operational and reputational risks, such as when service providers fail in their performance, when security or confidentiality breaches result, or where the service providers’ actions otherwise result in banks failing to comply with statutory or regulatory obligations. Additionally, the whole banking sector could be at risk if a common service provider to a number of banks fails in its performance of the services entrusted to it.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Outsourcing basic work and non-basic work</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Outsourcing Rules split those functions and tasks that can be outsourced into two main categories – ‘basic works’ and ‘non-basic works’. There are different considerations for outsourcing each of these categories of works, and there is a general prohibition (with some exceptions) on the outsourcing of works relating to customer data processing.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em>Basic Works</em></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Basic works refer broadly to the core tasks and responsibilities that banks have towards their customers. The operation of a bank’s information technology system is a prime example of basic works. Other examples include all customer-facing tasks (e.g. account opening, funds management, bank statements and transfers and payments), as well as human resources and marketing.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Banks are required to apply more rigour and diligence when outsourcing basic works, given the more serious consequences if the arrangement results in non-delivery of services. For that reason, the outsourcing of basic works is generally not permitted, unless the bank first obtains permission from SAMA. The Outsourcing Rules contain detailed requirements about what must be addressed in outsourcing contracts for basic works, and these are primarily aimed at reducing the potential harm that could result from outsourcing these core tasks and responsibilities.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><em><img class=\"wp-image-8222 alignleft\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/11.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"443\" height=\"309\" />Non-basic Works</em></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In contrast, non-basic works include services that are common to many businesses, and where outsourcing does not pose serious risk to customers. Examples include cleaning, printing and postal functions. Non-basic works may be assigned to third party service providers without first obtaining confirmation of no objection from SAMA.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Traditionally, banks would assign many non-basic works to third party service providers as a matter of course, and this may not have been considered ‘outsourcing’. Despite this, there may be implications for the outsourcing of such works in the Outsourcing Rules, so agreements relating to such works still need to be reviewed for compliance.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h2 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">\"The objective of the Outsourcing Rules is to provide guidance to banks on how to arrange outsourcing, while remaining compliant with the obligations under their banking licences.\"</h2>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Risk evaluation and management</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Outsourcing Rules require senior management within banks to ensure that risks for existing and potential outsourcing agreements are considered and addressed. For the assignment of basic works, a thorough risk evaluation needs to be undertaken for all new contracts and contract renewals. For non-basic works, a thorough review is only required where there are substantive changes to the deliverables under an outsourcing arrangement.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Banks must properly investigate a service provider’s ability to undertake the contemplated services. Once a service provider is appointed, there is an obligation on the bank to monitor the service provider’s performance to ensure that the work is being done in accordance with the bank’s requirements.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Outsourcing contracts</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Outsourcing Rules require banks to put in place comprehensive outsourcing contracts with service providers. These contracts need to address a variety of requirements, including scope of work, service levels and performance requirements, control and audit procedures, business continuity, pricing, confidentiality and privacy, information security, effects of breach and dispute resolution. The Outsourcing Rules indicate that it is preferable for governing law and jurisdiction of outsourcing contracts be that of Saudi Arabia.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">There is a requirement for outsourcing contracts to restrict service providers from sub-contracting any of the subject services without the prior consent of the banks, and subject to obtaining prior confirmation of no objection from SAMA.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Where customer data or financial statements are to be made available to a service provider in performance of outsourced services, it is necessary to ensure that the contractual arrangement reflects the confidentiality obligations set out in the Banking Control Law, and in other regulations and instructions that SAMA may have issued. It is also necessary to ensure that suitable measures are implemented to protect customer data and financial information in the course of performance of the outsourced services. These measures can include, for example, obligations requiring the adoption of isolation procedures restricting access to such information on a need-to-know basis, and obligations to have individuals involved in delivery of such services enter non-disclosure agreements.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Contracts for basic works need to make clear that SAMA has the right to obtain accounting documents and records relating to the assignment. Additionally, service providers located outside the Kingdom need to confirm that there are no statutory and control restrictions in their own jurisdictions that might impact on the unrestricted right of access to information that SAMA has under the Outsourcing Rules and the Banking Control Law.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Outsourcing contracts need to provide for the possibility of renewal, renegotiation, and termination of the contract, and early exit so that the bank can retain control over the subject services if it is necessary in the circumstances.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Business continuity</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Outsourcing has the potential to cause interruptions or outages to banking services. Business continuity is very important for banks, particularly in terms of continuity of information technology services. The Outsourcing Rules require banks to have a plan in place to ensure business continuity if the outsourced service is disrupted. This can either be a plan for the bank to perform the function itself, or to have an alternate service provider ready to undertake the services on short notice. The Outsourcing Rules place an obligation on banks to inform SAMA of problems or disruptions that arise due to outsourcing arrangements.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In line with SAMA’s Business Continuity Management Framework (issued in 2017), banks need to have a business continuity strategy, and a business line responsible for implementing, monitoring and evaluating the strategy. An information technology disaster recovery plan is required as a key component of business continuity; it applies whether or not information technology services are outsourced. The Business Continuity Management Framework outlines how to develop and implement a business continuity strategy in more detail.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><img class=\"wp-image-8276 alignright\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/shutterstock_778654396-681x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"398\" height=\"599\" />Cyber security considerations</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The SAMA Cyber Security Framework (issued in 2017, and discussed in a <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/law-update-articles/cyber-security-in-the-saudi-financial-services-sector-the-sama-cyber-security-framework/\">separate Law Update article</a>) acknowledges that banks will need to engage with third party service providers (including information technology services providers, cloud computing service providers, technology vendors and governmental agencies) in order to deliver their services. If such engagements do not respect the types of cyber security mechanisms that the banks have implemented, then they could result in cyber security risks. With this in mind, the Cyber Security Framework introduces expectations with regard to cyber security and the engagement of third parties. These can be broadly categorised as contract and vendor management considerations, outsourcing considerations and cloud computing considerations. It is essential that the cyber security obligations applying to banks pursuant to their implementation of SAMA’s Cyber Security Framework are addressed when considering outsourcing arrangements, and when preparing associated outsourcing contracts.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Conclusion</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Banks operating in Saudi Arabia need to be aware of the Outsourcing Rules. This is to ensure that they remain compliant from a regulatory perspective, but also to ensure that the outsourcing of certain business operations does not result in damage to their customers, or to their own operation, reputations and profitability.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The risks are greater when banks outsource their core functions, and SAMA’s Outsourcing Rules imposes greater obligations and restrictions on that type of outsourcing as a result.</p>\r\n<em>Al Tamimi &amp; Company’s <a href=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/practice/technology-media-telecommunications/\">Technology, Media &amp; Telecommunications</a> team regularly advises on issues relating to technology contracting in the financial services sector.

As a result, he was terminated and the commercial agency struck off the Ministry of Economy’s register. The Federal Supreme Court found that the agent was unable to prove that the termination was unjustified and was not entitled to receive compensation from the principal. The agent was also unable to preclude the principals from registering a replacement agent.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Background</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"></h3>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In the early 1980s, two principals (the \"Principals\") appointed an agent (the \"Original Agent\"), to represent them in the UAE. The Original Agent agreed to distribute, sell, and provide services on behalf of the two Principals in relation to three brands, two for Principal 1 and the third for Principal 2.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In 2004, problems arose when the Original Agent failed to pay for shipments within the timeframe agreed (30-90 days). As a result, the Principals obtained guarantees from the Original Agent and sent regular reminders to pay on time. The Principals continued to send shipments (because of the guarantees) and warned the Original Agent that he would be in breach of their commercial agency agreement if he continued to default. If he continued to be in default, the Principals would terminate the agreement.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Original Agent defaulted under the agreement and a letter of termination was sent to him. The letter included a notice period for the Original Agent to improve and comply with the payment terms agreed upon and to settle all outstanding payments, failing which the agreement would be terminated. The parties attempted but failed to resolve their issues amicably and the Original Agent continued to breach the payment terms.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">According to the Commercial Agency Law, the Minister of Economy is permitted to cancel a commercial agency arrangement if material reasons exist to terminate. The Minister at the time cancelled the commercial agency arrangement based on the letter of termination. Three letters were sent (one for each brand) and the Principals encashed the guarantees in lieu of the outstanding invoices.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Original Agent filed three administrative cases (two against Principal 1 and one against Principal 2) seeking a declaration that the Minister’s decision was null and void and asking for reinstatement as the agent in the Commercial Agency Register maintained by the Ministry of Economy. The agent argued that, according to Article 14 of the UAE Commercial Agency Law, a meeting should have been called first within 60 days of the letter of termination to address the Principals’ reasons for its request to deregister and to give the Original Agent an opportunity to respond to those reasons. However, the Ministry failed to call such meeting within the 60 day timeframe and the Original Agent argued that the requirements under the law were therefore not met.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Court of First Instance rejected the Original Agent’s claim and held that the Ministry’s duty was satisfied because of the communications exchanged between the parties. The Original Agent appealed the decision to the Court of Appeal, where he argued that the Court of First Instance was incorrect. He argued that calling a meeting was merely a formality but it existed to protect the rights of the agent. The Principals appealed to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court upheld the Court of Appeal decision.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">New agents</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">After the Ministry struck the Original Agent from the Commercial Agency Register, the Principals appointed new agents (the \"New Agents\"). Principal 1 appointed two agents for the emirate of Sharjah and the Northern Emirates and a second for the emirate of Abu Dhabi. Principal 2 appointed an agent for the whole of the UAE. Both New Agents were registered in the Commercial Agency Register.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Court of First Instance judgment on the Original Agent’s request to cancel the registration of the New Agents</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Original Agent filed an action to declare the Minister’s decision null and void and also to cancel the registrations of the New Agents. His request was rejected by the Court of First Instance.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">One of the remedies sought by the Original Agent in addition to the request to nullify the Ministry’s decision was the request to be reinstated in the Commercial Agency Register. However, the Court refused this on the basis that the New Agents had already been registered. The Court of First Instance did not issue a decision to cancel the new agency and the Original Agent then filed an appeal.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Court of Appeal</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Original Agent appealed to the Court of Appeal. The Court of Appeal ruled in favour of the Original Agent and declared the Minister’s decision null and void.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">However, the Court of Appeal refused to issue a decision on the deregistration of the New Agents on the basis that this issue was not addressed by the Court of First Instance at the time of issuing its judgment. The Court further ruled that, as this issue was overlooked by the Court of First Instance, the Original Agent could not appeal the Court of First Instance’s decision. He must therefore go back to the Court of First Instance to seek a remedy.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Original Agent appealed to the Supreme Court, who requested that the matter be referred to three experts (one for each brand). All three experts said that the Original Agent was in breach of his obligations and not entitled to any compensation.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Although the Original Agent won a judgment in its favour, the New Agents were still registered in the Commercial Agency Register. The Original Agent asked the Execution Court to enforce the Court of Appeal judgment and requested to be reinstated as agent, reiterating that the Minister’s decision was declared invalid and therefore the effect of its decision should also be declared null and void. This request was rejected.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Compensation claims by the Original Agent: Part 1</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Original Agent filed three claims (one for each brand) against the Principals. The total claim amount was approximately AED 600 million (representing loss of earnings and expenses).</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Court of First Instance referred the cases to a panel of experts. The new panel of experts (like the previous panel) concluded that the Original Agent was in breach of the agreements and caused substantial loss to the Principals. The three experts reported that the breaches had been brought to the attention of the Original Agent to no avail. Therefore, they were not entitled to compensation. The Court of First Instance dismissed the three claims and the Original Agent appealed to the Court of Appeal. The Court of Appeal upheld the Court of First Instance judgment. The Original Agent again went to the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court rejected his appeal.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"><img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-8237\" src=\"http://localhost:8888/tamimi/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/August-Edition-DPS_Page_05_Image_0001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"326\" height=\"906\" />Compensation claims by the Original Agent: Part 2</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In 2014, the Original Agent filed three new lawsuits. In the new cases, he claimed approximately a total of AED 5 billion. The Original Agent also included the Ministry, the New Agents and the Principals as defendants to the action.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Principals raised many defences including res judicata (as this new case was similar to the previous case already decided) and limitation on the grounds the claim was time-barred because the termination was in 2005 and the new claim was filed in 2014. In addition, the Principals also argued that the case should be rejected because of the Original Agent’s breach of his agreement and the fact that there is no standing to sue (there is no relationship between the New Agents and the Original Agent).</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Court of First Instance accepted the New Agents’ defences and rejected the case against the Ministry. The Original Agent appealed to the Court of Appeal. The Court of Appeal rejected the Original Agent’s appeal.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"></h3>\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Supreme Court of Cassation (final time)</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The Original Agent appealed to the Supreme Court for the second time. The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal and upheld the Court of Appeal judgment based on the grounds set out in the Court of Appeal decision.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Summary of case</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">In summary, the Court of Appeal in all matters filed by the Original Agent referred the matter to a panel of experts.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">All three panels confirmed that the Original Agent had committed many breaches such as non-payment of invoices, poor management of the business, lack of customer service and therefore the agent was not entitled to any compensation.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Accordingly, the Federal Supreme Court issued its judgment.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<ol>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">It rejected the appeal of the Original Agent and upheld the Court of First Instance judgment in its entirety.</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">It held that the cases should have been filed as a tort claim as it was a request for compensation for a wrongful act because of the alleged wrongful termination.</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">The Original Agent did not substantiate his claims and provide proof of damages allegedly suffered as a result of the agency being struck off the Commercial Agency Register.</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">The New Agents’ involvement in the dispute had no legal basis. The New Agents were not a party to the dispute nor was there any evidence of any damage caused by the New Agents’ appointment.</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">As confirmed by the panel of experts, the Original Agent had breached the terms of the agency agreement by failing to make timely payments to the Principals and did not report declining sales until the business incurred a major loss.</li>\r\n 	<li dir=\"LTR\">The Court of First Instance was correct in dismissing the action against the Principals.</li>\r\n</ol>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\"></h3>\r\n<h3 dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Comments</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The outcome of the case was excellent for the Principals.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">The decision confirms that notwithstanding the protections afforded to agents, agents who choose not to perform as expected will not benefit from the protections provided under the Commercial Agency Law.</p>\r\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">This case also demonstrates the importance of substantiating any claims against a non-performing agent to justify termination.</p>'),
