Dr. Subaih Al-Mukhaizeem withdrew the judicial authority of six members from the Ministry of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy’s judicial enforcement team on May 26, according to Arab Times. The minister cited the interest of work in the decision affecting employees tasked with monitoring electricity and water violations under Law No. 48 of 2005. The ministry also signed a KD29.857 million contract the same week for construction of a water pumping station in Mutla’a Residential City to support freshwater needs in new urban developments.
The Arab Times reported that the six individuals are ministry employees who had formed part of the judicial team granted enforcement powers. No additional details on the reasons for the specific revocations were included in the ministerial decision. Judicial enforcement teams within the ministry operate under the framework of Law No. 48 of 2005, which equips officers to address network encroachments and water waste, a ministry announcement from March 2025 confirmed.
The ministry’s website documented the graduation of a fresh batch of 23 judicial officers in March 2025 under the patronage of Undersecretary Dr. Adel Al-Zamel. An engineer speaking at that event underlined the officers’ role in controlling violations and correcting improper installations across electrical and water systems. Four batches had completed training at the Higher Judicial Institute since the law entered into force, the ministry statement noted at the time.
Arab Times reported that the ministry signed the contract for construction, completion and maintenance of the water pumping station and associated facilities at Site One in Mutla’a Residential City. Ministry sources disclosed that the KD29.857 million project is included in plans to expand the freshwater system serving emerging residential cities. The Water Projects Department is executing the works in line with latest international specifications to guarantee continuous and efficient water delivery to consumers.
The sources told Arab Times that infrastructure projects in Mutlaa City are advancing under the direct supervision of Al-Mukhaizeem and Dr. Adel Al-Zamel. Both officials have prioritized timely completion to fulfill freshwater demands for the city’s future residents. The full system encompasses the pumping station together with transmission lines, underground reservoirs and water towers, while the contract incorporates periodic maintenance to sustain operations.
Mutla’a forms one of Kuwait’s largest new residential expansions, where water and wastewater infrastructure projects address demands created by population growth and urban planning objectives, according to descriptions from the Arab Urban Development Institute. Comparable programs in South Al-Mutlaa have emphasized connections to the national desalination network for potable supply. The Ministry of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy has scheduled dozens of electricity and water network contracts for the 2026/2027 fiscal year to match ongoing residential development, ministry planning documents show.
