RIYADH: The National Center for Environmental Compliance has said it conducted more than 25,000 inspections across various sectors and activities during the first half of 2024, representing a substantial increase over the number of inspections carried out last year.
Abdullah Al-Ayuni, the NCEC’s director general, said the increase in inspection visits to facilities would boost adherence to regulations. This heightened compliance will result in benefits to the quality of essential environmental resources such as water, air, and soil.
He said the inspection tours were conducted by specialized national teams and followed a detailed schedule based on the environmental impact of various activities and the public sector.
The second quarter of this year has seen an 18 percent increase in inspections compared to the same period last year.
