Kuwait’s Ministry of Social Affairs denied media reports Wednesday as “untrue” that the ministry planned to scrap the sponsors’ system. Media reports about cancellation of the sponsors’ system of workers “are completely untrue,” Undersecretary Abdulaziz Shuaib said in a statement.
He said Minister Maryam Al-Aqeel did not even present a proposal on this matter to the Council of Minister. He explained this was a study received by the Ministry of Social Affairs, and was referred to the relevant departments.
