The article examines radical changes both in the procedure of Shura Council formation and in its field of competence. The structure of the Council comes under review and the place and role of its main authorities in supporting the government on different running the state issues is determined. Considering and examining the many years’ experience of the Council the author has come to the conclusion that the role of the Shura Council is limited only by the government in addressing certain issues. The Council studies these issues and provides recommendations to the Sultan for approval. These recommendations have no legal force, and the Council cannot impose its views on the Government. Despite this fact, the Council in its current form can become the basis for the future Parliament of Oman. To make this happen, in our opinion, it is necessary that the Council be directly involved in the discussion and approval of the state budget. It is also important to make the government accountable to the Council and to report to him about the results of its work.
