The Kingdom's remarks were given by Nidaa Abu-Ali, Counselor and Head of Legal Committee and Counter Terrorism at The Permanent Mission of Saudi Arabia to the UN, in a speech at the 76th session of the UN General Assembly.
Abu-Ali also expressed Saudi Arabia's“appreciation for the efforts made by UN staff and experts delegated to international missions.”

She added that any violation of the various legislations of the system by those working on it negatively affects the credibility of the United Nations.
“At the national level, the Kingdom has been keen to put in place strong measures based on effective governance, combating corruption and accountability applicable to all persons and entities, and that the commitment to raising the level of integrity and accountability comes from the awareness of the amount of damage caused by corruption and impunity,” Abu-Ali said in her speech, according to SPA.
