On Wednesday morning 2/6/2021, a Master thesis entitled “the Kuwaiti National Assembly, a Historical Study in the Records of the Second Legislative Term 1967-1970”, was discussed in the History Department at the College of Arts.
The thesis presented by the student Shahla Abdul-Ridha Aylan included four chapters. The first chapter discussed Kuwait's security affairs in the records of the National Assembly, the second legislative term 1967-1970. The second chapter dealt with Kuwait's economic and financial affairs in the records of the National Assembly, the second legislative term 1967-1970.
The third chapter dealt with Kuwait's service, health and educational affairs in the records of the National Assembly, the second legislative term 1967-1970.
As for the fourth chapter, it dealt with Kuwait’s foreign affairs in the records of the National Assembly, the second legislative term 1967-1970
The thesis aimed to define the aspects in which the Kuwaiti National Assembly the second legislative term 1967-1970, played a role in security, economic and service fields, as well as foreign affairs, and the extent of its importance for Kuwait as a newly independent country.
The thesis concluded that although Kuwait had enjoyed a large financial resource resulting from oil export, the level of laws that were approved on the service and economic levels were not commensurate with the financial increase in Kuwait's income, while the external level received the greatest attention in terms of the approved laws and this is especially due to the internal and external situation of Kuwait in that period of time.
The thesis discussed the most important laws, whether presented by the government or submitted by members, that were approved and the reasons for their approval, the discussions that took place in the National Assembly, the extent to which these laws were accepted by the members, and whether there was cooperation between the National Assembly and the government in approving some laws.
