The Consumer Protection Department in Al Dakhiliyah Governorate, in partnership with the Department of Commerce, Industry and Investment Promotion in the Governorate, launched a joint inspection and awareness campaign under the slogan “Towards Safe Tires... and a Protected Consumer,” targeting tire retail outlets across the various wilayats of the governorate. This initiative comes within the framework of its continuous efforts to enhance consumer safety and ensure the quality of products circulated in the markets.
The campaign comes as part of the regulatory and awareness programs aimed at raising the level of compliance with the laws and regulations governing the circulation of tires, and ensuring the availability of products that conform to approved specifications and requirements, thereby contributing to enhancing public safety and limiting unlawful practices that may affect the security and safety of consumers.
The campaign will include the implementation of a number of joint field inspection visits to tire retail outlets across the various wilayats of the governorate, with the aim of verifying the commitment of suppliers and traders to clearly display prices and refrain from increasing them, in addition to complying with the provisions of the Consumer Protection Law and its Executive Regulation, as well as adhering to the decisions and circulars regulating the circulation of tires in the local markets.
The campaign will also focus on examining the tires displayed and verifying their suitability for use, as well as checking the quality of the circulated tires and their compliance with approved technical specifications and requirements. In addition, the campaign seeks to strengthen awareness among suppliers and consumers regarding the importance of selecting safe tires and the necessity of verifying manufacturing and expiry data prior to purchase.
The Department affirmed that these efforts come within the framework of the Authority’s commitment to providing a stable and safe consumer environment, and to enhancing partnership and integration among various governmental and private entities in a manner that achieves better consumer protection. The Department also called upon consumers to report any observations or violations through the Authority’s approved communication channels.
