Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud issued on Sunday an order to amend the name of the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs and Housing.

It will now be called the Ministry of Municipalities and Housing.

Minister of Municipalities and Housing Majed bin Abdullah Al-Hogail expressed his gratitude to King Salman and Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister, on the move.

He emphasized that the name change reflects the ongoing commitment to developing an advanced urban environment in line with the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030.

This effort aims to boost the ministry's overall performance and its municipalities to achieve sustainable urban development plans, he remarked. Additionally, it aims to improve the quality of life in cities and develop the housing sector to provide innovative services.

The Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs was established by royal order in 1975 with the responsibility for urban planning and development of municipal and rural areas. It has also been tasked with managing municipal services to maintain a clean and healthy environment.

In 2020, a royal decree merged the Ministry of Housing into the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs, becoming the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs and Housing. The move sought to ensure the continuation of achievements and fulfill the aspirations of the Kingdom, positioning it among advanced countries.
