The package of procedure and solution to settle down the dues with private companies was made which will be presented to Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman. The package is implemented as early as possible before ending of this year.

The package also focuses on major projects and some other second priority projects so that to halt payment for those projects which were not on priority list hence in this way Saudi govt able to save funds for payment of dues to Private Sector which were equal to around SR 1 Trillion. These payments were late due to the obvious reason the sharp fall in oil prices. Saudi Govt already taken many steps to reduce their extra expenditures and cuts funds from mega projects.

These arrears causes huge loss to construction sector as many of expatriate workers working on construction projects that is way they have to bear the cost of late wages. Even companies like Saudi Oger become totally bankrupt.
