The draft system comes in line with efforts to update the public sector, and as a completion to its requirements after the issuance of the amended law for the restructuring of governmental institutions and departments number 6 for the year 2025, where Article 7 thereof stipulates the transfer of the Scientific Research and Innovation Support Fund, established in the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, to the Higher Council for Science and Technology, along with its rights and assets, and it is considered the legal and actual successor to it.

On the level of administrative and regulatory systems and instructions, the Cabinet approved an amended system for the building and organization in Amman for the year 2025.
Under the new amendment, buildings established in 2025 will be included in the reduction percentage on unpaid fees according to the provisions of the buildings and organization system in Amman, including the penalties fees stipulated in paragraph (b) of Article (72) of this system, and in a manner that achieves justice and equality for the owners of these buildings, and reduces the burdens of paying fines.
The Cabinet also decided to approve the application of the provisions of the Electronic Tracking System for Government Vehicles and Machinery and the monitoring of their use for the year 2017, on the vehicles belonging to the Ministry of Agriculture that are used for transporting untreated organic fertilizer.
The decision aims to preserve public health and the environment, and to minimize the damages that may result from the transportation process of untreated organic fertilizer, from harming the environment, and ensuring that the transportation of this type of fertilizers is conducted according to the best practices to prevent the environmental damages that may arise from it.
