Zulkifli Mohamad Al-Bakri says efforts are being made after discussions with the syarie chief judges and chief registrars of the shariah courts. FMTNews GE14

The shariah courts empowerment committee was dissolved when Pakatan Harapan came to power after the 14th general election.

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Zulkifli Mohamad Al-Bakri said the committee was originally set up in 2017 to empower the shariah judicial system in a holistic manner, in line with the status of Islam in the Federal Constitution. “The administration of shariah courts is also being standardised through the formulation of the Shariah Court Practices, Shariah Court Rules and standard operating procedure.

Zulkifli was responding to Noh Omar , who wanted to know if the government intended to form a committee to restructure the administration and procedures adopted by the shariah courts in order to upgrade the judicial system.
