The FNC thanked those who have helped it over the past two years at a ceremony in the capital yesterday.
People from more than 130 local and federal government entities and the private sector were given certificates of appreciation by Mohammed Al Murr, the council’s Speaker.
Recipients included those from educational institutions, media outlets, municipalities and ministries.
Marwan bin Ghalita (Dubai) said cooperation was high in the past year as the number of laws and general topics discussed in the council covered various fields.
Winners of the FNC book-fair competition were also announced and awarded prizes.
Faraj Abdullah, 18, from Abu Dhabi, won a prize for correctly answering questions about the FNC.

Straightforward ways to reduce sugar in your family's diet
- Ban fruit juice and sodas
- Eat a hearty breakfast that contains fats and wholegrains, such as peanut butter on multigrain toast or full-fat plain yoghurt with whole fruit and nuts, to avoid the need for a 10am snack
- Give young children plain yoghurt with whole fruits mashed into it
- Reduce the number of cakes, biscuits and sweets. Reserve them for a treat
- Don’t eat dessert every day
- Make your own smoothies. Always use the whole fruit to maintain the benefit of its fibre content and don’t add any sweeteners
- Always go for natural whole foods over processed, packaged foods. Ask yourself would your grandmother have eaten it?
- Read food labels if you really do feel the need to buy processed food
- Eat everything in moderation
