Earlier this week, the Dubai Economy issued 56 fines for violations of Covid-19 precautionary guidelines.
The fines were issued during inspections conducted across open markets, shopping malls and commercial establishments.
Meanwhile, the Sharjah Private Education Authority (SPEA) has said that schools in the emirate cannot dismiss a pupil, prevent him/her from appearing for an examination or deny their right to education due to a delay in payment of tuition fees, owing to the financial constraints brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Ali Al Hosany, Director of the SPEA, said schools need to comply with all procedures and instructions and must be flexible regarding accepting the payment of tuition fees.
