Minister of Social Development Wafa Bani Mustafa said in statements to Al-Mamlaka that the initiative aims to protect families and ensure their safety, noting that the replacement process requires the handover of old heaters for disposal.
Bani Mustafa added that the ministry has instructed social development directorates to begin receiving applications for heater replacement, pointing out that the ministry has ready lists of beneficiaries and will start distributing heaters to them on Sunday.
The Council of Ministers had decided to task the Ministry of Social Development with replacing 15,000 unsafe heaters with safe alternatives for eligible families and allocating the necessary funds for this purpose, through social development centers in the governorates and Tkiyet Um Ali, within the framework of social protection and as part of the Safe Winter campaign launched at the beginning of the winter season.
The decision comes as a continuation of the efforts exerted by the Ministry of Social Development and relevant ministries during the winter season each year, through various initiatives and programs aimed at supporting eligible families.
