Measure and scope
THE STAGE IS A DECISION TO ESTABLISH AND NOTHING ABOVE IT. The statement itself places the completion of the establishment procedures ahead rather than behind. No coverage limit, no funding source, no commencement date and no instrument is named; protection is promised 'within specified limits and controls' which the statement does not specify.
Known conflict
None found. NO DECISION OF THE CREDIT AND MONETARY COUNCIL AND NO DECREE HAS BEEN RETRIEVED, and either would outrank a post on the bank's own channel.

Action
Attribute to the THEN governor: the statement is Husrieh's of 22 August 2025 and Decree No. 99 of 2026 appointed Raslan on 15 May 2026. Do not write that a scheme exists, protects, or covers anything.
