Spending schedules disrupt the approval of the 2024 budget TUE,07-05-2024,PM 4:08 KARRAR AL, ASADI More than four months ago from this year, and the federal budget is still ranging between the Ministry of Finance and the Council of Ministers, while the House of Representatives is waiting for the tables to reach it in order to review them and make what it deems necessary to vote on them and then return them again to the government to proceed with their implementation, and specialists attribute this delay in approving the budget to the failure of the finance to complete the operating expenditure tables and that this matter will be reflected on investment projects, while others confirm that the budget has been approved, but the government has not issued Instructions for its implementation so far. Culture Minister Ahmed Fakak al-Badran said last Saturday that the cabinet is waiting for the tables to arrive from the Ministry of Finance for the purpose of discussing and passing them to parliament for the purpose of voting on them, pointing out that once the tables arrive, the council will vote on them. "There are several reasons for the delay in approving the 2024 budget tables, one of which is that the Ministry of Finance has not yet completed the operating expenditure schedules, which were supposed to be completed in September or October 2023," said economist Abdul Rahman al-Mashhadani. "The Ministry of Finance had previously circulated a letter on January 16 to all state departments, institutions and bodies, including the ministries of the Kurdistan region and its institutions, asking them to provide them with detailed tables on employees that include numbers, names and salaries, as well as the allocations due and the deductions imposed," he added. "The Ministry of Finance's letter was supposed to be answered by state institutions at the end of March, but the high allocations of salaries for Kurdistan employees in the general budget, which are estimated at nine trillion dinars, called on the Ministry of Finance to make amendments to the schedules, but this is also not considered a justification for the ministry's delay," al-Mashhadani said. He pointed out that "the investment budget in the provinces has contributed to delaying the approval of the results of the provincial council elections, as the time given to the provincial councils to discuss investment projects and the decisions issued by them that were included in the budget tables, also contributed to the delay after it was limited to governors only in the past." He warns that "the negative impact of the delay in approving the schedules may be reflected on new investment projects not previously included in the tripartite budget (2023-2024-2025), as these projects need new approval from Parliament, but their impact is not very harmful to the validity of the budget, especially since the operational budget is approved and its basic paragraph related to salaries, wages, social protection and retirees, in addition to governing expenses such as the ration card, the purchase of wheat and medicines, as well as the interest and installments of the public debt, all valid and payable, until Even if the schedules are not approved, as happened in 2020 and 2022." "The government is currently proceeding within the tripartite general budget law approved by the Iraqi parliament, meaning that the approval of the 2024 budget is implicit, and the budget is currently within normal rates in force according to the 1/12 system of last year's budget," al-Mashhadani said. On April 30, Prime Minister Mohamed Shia al-Sudani discussed with Acting Speaker of the House of Representatives Mohsen al-Mandalawi the completion of the 2024 budget tables and sending them to the House of Representatives for a vote. For his part, economist Mustafa Akram Hantoush pointed out that "the 2024 budget was approved, but the government did not issue instructions for its implementation due to the increase in the amount of the budget for this year to 228 trillion dinars, there are many transfers in its doors and therefore the government moved to another direction, as there are new budget tables instead of implementing the previously approved 2024 budget, and this is a reason for delaying approval." He explained that "in the absence of budget schedules, the government falls within the Financial Management Law No. 6 of 2019 and operates the 1/12 system, meaning that it follows the same spending system that took place in 2023, but the problem is that this delay will be reflected in new projects as well as the salaries of new employees and those covered by social welfare, as it requires approval of the increase in the budget amount to cover these salaries." It is noteworthy that the House of Representatives voted on June 12, 2023, on the federal budget law for the years 2023, 2024 and 2025, in a gesture that is the first of its kind in the country's history in terms of the size of the budget as well as the number of fiscal years, worth 197 trillion and 828 billion dinars, with a fiscal deficit of 63 trillion dinars, or nearly a third of the budget. For his part, economist Humam Shamma blames Prime Minister Mohamed Shia al-Sudani for delaying the adoption of the budget due to the adoption of the "unusual" tripartite general budget system. "The reason for following the 1/12 spending plan is that the budget tables have created a large and enormous deficit unprecedented in the entire history of budgets, leading to problems that may be difficult to solve in terms of providing liquidity to cover spending," he explains. "The Sudanese government is now relying on the method of spending through electronic payment packages in order to reduce the need for cash, but it has failed to do so, and delaying the adoption of schedules does not have an impact as much as it made the government control spending according to its will and desire," he said. On February 1, the Parliamentary Finance Committee revealed the latest developments in the fiscal budget for 2024, indicating that it will rise to 206 trillion dinars instead of 199 trillion dinars, and in late March, the government took a sudden step by raising the size of the current year's budget to 228 trillion dinars. Members of the House of Representatives criticized the government's delay in sending the revised 2024 budget tables for study and approval, despite the facilities it enjoys as it is within a three-year budget and only needs some adjustments in the numbers of the exchange and revenue sections, adding that violating the legal timings regarding the budget and others has become a custom in the country.

The use of the national currency in commercial transactions with Iran. Expert comments on Iraq's losses - URGENT Economy | Today, 21:02 | The use of the national currency in commercial transactions with Iran. Expert comments on Iraq's losses - Urgent » Baghdad Today News Agency m." Baghdad Today – Baghdad Today, Tuesday (May 7, 2024), financial and economic expert Alaa Globe Al-Fahd commented on the possibility of Iraq losing through its use of the national currency in commercial transactions with Iran. Al-Fahd told Baghdad Today, "The idea of dealing in trade in local currency between Iraq and Iran is not emerging today, but it is a decision by the Central Bank of Iraq as well as the Iraqi government to negotiate on this issue with more than one country, not just Iran, including the UAE." He explained that "the exchange is in UAE dinars, with China in yuan, with Iran in Iranian toman, and even with Turkey there is a negotiation that the trade exchange will be in Turkish lira." "This creates confidence in the local currency, when it has value at the global level, and this follows the strength of the Iraqi dinar, and this issue does not constitute any loss for Iraq and Iran," he said. He added that "this currency will turn into goods or exchange and barter, if there is a joint trade exchange between the two countries, and we believe that this issue has many positives more than negatives, and this gives strength to the local currency and gives it confidence even at the level of the citizen and the trader as well as the foreign trader and not only the local." On Monday, Iranian Vice President Mohammad Mokhber called on Iraq to use "national currencies" in trade and economic exchanges between the two countries. The office of the Iranian vice president said in a statement followed by "Baghdad Today" that "the need to expand economic relations and improve the level of trade cooperation between the Islamic Republic of Iran and Iraq was stressed." He added, "The relations between Tehran and Baghdad are close, strong and sincere, and the union of the two countries is a source of loss and fear for the enemies and the point of hope and prosperity, they are two countries and their people will taste the sweet taste of this union in expanding economic relations between them

On Tuesday, a member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Representative Moeen Al-Kadhimi, suggested that the Council of Ministers would approve the amendments to the 2024 budget schedules during its regular session today, indicating that if approved, they will be sent to Parliament tomorrow, Wednesday. Al-Kadhimi told Al-Maalouma, “The Council of Ministers is supposed to approve the 2024 budget tables during its regular session,” suggesting that “the Council of Ministers will vote on the tables today, especially after the pressure put on the Council by Parliament, which considered delaying the approval unjustified.” . He added, "If approved today, the schedules will be sent to the House of Representatives tomorrow, Wednesday, and therefore the Parliamentary Finance Committee will study the schedule and provide a briefing to Parliament for the purpose of approving it," noting that "the House of Representatives will extend its legislative recess until the 2024 budget schedules are approved."
