The Prince pointed out that all meetings that took place with officials, judges, jurists and specialists in the resolution of trade disputes have provided an opportunity to brief the British side on the legal, administrative, procedural and humanitarian dimensions of King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Project for the Development of Judiciary Sector. In relation to meetings held between him and Justice Minister with senior British officials, the Saudi ambassador said "The talks were positive and provided an opportunity to brief the officials of the British government and Judicial sector on the development being witnessed by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia at the present time in judicial field. These talks have given British specialists and officials the opportunity to know about the independence of Saudi Judiciary and to correct misconceptions about some of draft laws in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the belief that they will be used to suppress freedom of expression while they are mainly directed against terrorist threats, which are global issues and will remain a serious challenge facing all governments and will continue to confront these threats to the security of our country in every required way." --More
