KUWAIT CITY, Aug 20: Minister of Social Affairs and Labor Fahd Al- Shariaan recently issued a decision to amend regulations concerning nurseries; such that a guarantee of KD5,000 is now required to obtain a license to operate a nursery, reports Al-Jarida daily quoting sources. In addition, the owner should be a Kuwaiti who holds a diploma, university certificate or its equivalent; and should not be employed in the government or private sector.

The applicant will be notified in writing within one week from the date of issuance of approval or rejection, including a statement justifying the decision.
