His Excellency the Governor of the Central Bank

Please be informed that some commercial banks operating in the Kingdom publish details of funds that have been subject to statute of limitations either in local newspapers or in the Official Gazette, in accordance with the Law of Government Ownership of Funds Subject to Statute of Limitations and its amendments No. (35) for the year 1985.

Through our monitoring of the details of published funds, it has been observed sometimes that some of these funds belong to certain ministries, institutions, and government entities, and the legal period specified in the provisions of the aforementioned law has passed for them.

Since these funds, which belong to ministries, institutions, and government entities, are public funds, and the legal period has passed for them and their purpose has ended, I therefore request Your Excellency to kindly instruct all commercial banks operating in the Kingdom to inventory the amounts held by them that belong to ministries, institutions, and government entities, which have exceeded the legal period, and to transfer them directly to the Ministry of Finance, and to comply with this in the future.

Please accept our highest respect,

Dr. Amneh Salah Touqan
