Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed, Deputy Ruler of Dubai and Minister of Finance, appointed Majed Al Ansari as the executive director of operation, compliance and performance audit sector at the Financial Audit Authority in the emirate.
Sheikh Maktoum, who is also the Chairman of the Financial Audit Authority, also issued a decision appointing Mohamed Al Shared as the executive director of Financial Statement Audit and Specialised Audit Sector at the authority.
The two decisions are effective from January 1 and will be published in the official gazette, Dubai government media office said on Tuesday.
The Financial Audit Authority in Dubai is an independent public authority with a mandate to audit public funds and promote accountability, transparency and integrity, its website said.
It aims to be an “independent supreme audit institution that effectively promotes accountability, transparency and integrity in the use of government resources”, it added.
The authority provides innovative professional services that add value, build trust and support the realisation of Dubai's vision.

Know before you go
- Jebel Akhdar is a two-hour drive from Muscat airport or a six-hour drive from Dubai. It’s impossible to visit by car unless you have a 4x4. Phone ahead to the hotel to arrange a transfer.
- If you’re driving, make sure your insurance covers Oman.
- By air: Budget airlines Air Arabia, Flydubai and SalamAir offer direct routes to Muscat from the UAE.
- Tourists from the Emirates (UAE nationals not included) must apply for an Omani visa online before arrival at evisa.rop.gov.om. The process typically takes several days.
- Flash floods are probable due to the terrain and a lack of drainage. Always check the weather before venturing into any canyons or other remote areas and identify a plan of escape that includes high ground, shelter and parking where your car won’t be overtaken by sudden downpours.
