Siraj & Elhusseny Law Firm and Legal Consultancy prepares and reviews internal regulations and policies and drafts the regulatory frameworks governing the work of companies, institutions and other bodies, so that internal procedures and structures are consistent with the applicable legal and regulatory framework and the nature of each body.

Practical Experience in Legislative and Regulatory Work

The firm's management brings distinctive experience in this field, having previously attended sessions of the House of Representatives and the Senate as a representative of the Ministry of Interior, and having represented the Ministry on the Supreme Committee for Legislative Reform, which is tasked with reviewing all legislation, regulations and executive decrees. This experience gives the firm a practical understanding of how legislative and regulatory frameworks are prepared, drafted and reviewed, going beyond abstract legal drafting to an understanding of how institutions operate, how competences are allocated, and what it takes to apply texts and regulations in practice within different bodies.

How We Prepare Regulations and Policies

  • Understanding the Organization and How It Works: Each engagement begins with studying the organization's activity, its management structure and the procedures it seeks to regulate.
  • Reviewing the Current Position: We examine the regulations, policies and documents in force and identify the issues that need amendment or reorganization.
  • Defining the Regulatory Framework: We define the scope of each regulation or policy and the authorities, procedures and responsibilities to be regulated, according to the nature of the organization and the relevant legal rules.
  • Drafting and Review: The team prepares the regulations and policies or redrafts existing ones, with an emphasis on clarity and on provisions that can be applied in practice within the organization.
  • Updating When Needed: Policies and regulations can be reviewed and updated when legislative or regulatory requirements change or when the organization's structure or way of working changes.
