Office of Financial Supervision: Inform the judiciary and integrity of corruption directly without reference to the Ministry

Saturday 06 April 2019 54

 

 

Baghdad / Tareq al-Araji

 

The Bureau of Financial Supervision began activating Article 11 of its law, which includes informing the Integrity Commission or the Public Prosecution of corruption cases without referring to the concerned ministry and the offices of the public inspectors in order to count them as a financial crime or criminal prosecution. 

 

 

In the meantime, the Audit Bureau confirmed that a very large percentage of corruption, which was monitored and caused the waste of the amount exceeded the trillion dinars was the result of advances granted to investment projects and the uncertainty of the long-term projects implemented on the basis of external loans, while at the same time was able to audit the budget in 2014 and for transmission To the Council of Ministers. 

 

This information was disclosed by the head of the Financial Control Bureau in a broad dialogue with "morning" in its text ..

 

[Asharq Al-Awsat] There are many who rely on the Financial Control Bureau to uncover administrative and financial corruption cases. To what extent did he succeed in that?

The Audit Bureau acts in accordance with Article 16 of its law, which requires the public prosecution or the Integrity Commission to be informed of financial irregularities that constitute a criminal offense, and the courts enforce them even though the normal context established by the law on the discipline of state employees leads to the fact that every case is not referred to the judiciary And administrative investigation with the employees of the ministries must be done by the Ministry itself and thus the approval of the competent minister to investigate, and that the most cases that reach the Bureau and the discovery of financial irregularities recommended to be investigated by the Inspector General of the Ministry concerned, so most of the violations of the money Which is recommended by the SAI to an administrative investigation that ends with the Inspector General and the Minister concerned with the absence of a Kuwaiti or a simple penalty, and this is the context and the number of cases of this type to thousands, despite the fact that they deserve more measures and penalties much more, prompting the Court to object to these sentences as a result Not guilty of punishment and not

 

[Asharq Al-Awsat] Have the owners been trained in the Bureau on this type of work? 

Yes, we trained the staff of the Office on the new pattern of verification of cases and the adoption of criminal evidence, because obtaining evidence is different from obtaining evidence of a financial violation, this is called the Criminal Investigation, where a team was sent from the Court to South Korea and we will work to transfer the Korean experience to Iraq, because it is consistent with the directions of the Council of Representatives and there is a team will be sent to Egypt, in addition to the agreement with the Presidents of the Supreme Judicial Council and the Prosecutor General to train the staff of the Office in the Judicial Institute on the issues of criminal investigation exclusively to be integrated issues and work on the development of staff in the country also, It is hoped that other courses will be held in July so we can dispense with the Inspector General to a certain extent and send the cases directly to the Public Prosecution and the Integrity Commission.

 

[Asharq Al-Awsat] Where did you arrive at the final accounts of the federal budgets?

The SAI succeeded in auditing the financial budgets until 2014, which was accompanied by many of the problems, where the Ministry of Finance was able to provide the Office of the budget of 2014, which is the basis of the problem that exceeded two years because of non-approval by the House of Representatives, which is still in place and was withdrawn continuously from the Court Despite the Ministry of Finance's recent submission to the Court, which has been audited and will be submitted within a month to the Council of Ministers. However, the issue of issuing the Budget Law 2014 remains unresolved and has not been resolved by the Council of Ministers. B or the Council of Ministers because of the possibility of closing their accounts unless the budget is approved, because the origin of the approval of the budget of the House of Representatives meaning the legislative authority's permission to the executive authority to deal with public money and so far has not been granted this leave and then will move the Bureau to audit the budget in 2015, very The Council of Representatives and its ministers were informed that the most foreign borrowings that were actually borrowed did not enter into the final account in the restrictions in the accounting department. At the budget readings, Iraq was not borrowing. The existence of this matter is limited in a statistical way in the Public Debt Department. An apology for checking the final account for the year 2015 unless the Ministry of Finance included all the external borrowing funds and met with the current minister to give them the treatments and train them on the way to show the loans in the hope that they can do so a month from now to overcome the problem, and the Ministry of Finance has not yet collected the budgets after the year 2015.

 

What are the biggest financial corruption outlets that have been monitored in the audited financial budgets?

That the largest outlets waste public money that was allocated in the advances granted to the construction companies before the implementation of any contract and was awarded an operational advance against the letter of guarantee, and the statistical bureau for most of the Chambers until 2016, as delivered in advance to the contracting companies for projects and not completed and did not recover advances, Which amounted to 978 billion dinars, and that the Bureau informed the Ministry of Finance on this subject and based on the debt report has been exceeded this problem in the budget of 2019 and indicators of corruption, mostly in investment projects and there are thousands of projects lagging, and therefore moved the Integrity Commission and the parents to inventory projects lagging And the projects will be completed by the loans and the public does not know anything and where to implement them, and will complete the Bureau reports in all provinces for the projects that were implemented on the Japanese loan as a model, and even ask the Ministry of Finance now the amount of loans do not give you the right number

 

[Asharq Al-Awsat] Is there coordination with the Kurdistan Region to subject its services to the Audit Bureau?

Yes, for the first time there was an opening by the province to the control bureau and there are projects implemented in the region within the Japanese loan, where the region approved the audit and obtained the approval of the government there and this is the first precedent, and now there is an approach to check salaries (Peshmerga) There is an initial response, It is waiting for the results of negotiations between the governments of the Center and the region and there are signs of response to this, unlike before, where the Board was facing a total rejection.

Baghdad lawmaker to foreign donors: Don't give to Iraqi government

Iraq Baghdad Corruption Saudi Arabia Riyadh

 

 

ERBIL (Kurdistan 24) – The head of the Iraqi parliament's Legal Committee on Friday called on foreign donor countries to refrain from handing any funds to his federal government because of chronic corruption.

“As a lawmaker, on behalf of the Iraqi people, I address the donor countries (especially the Gulf States): Do not hand over Dinars, Dirhams, or Riyals to our government… because they will go to groups of thieves,” Fayiq Sheikh Ali, committee head, posted on his Twitter account.

Ali’s comment came after a senior Saudi Minister heading a high-level delegation to Baghdad on Wednesday pledged that Iraq will receive a US $1 billion loans for reconstruction efforts throughout the country as well as a sports city complex in Baghdad as a gift from Saudi Arabian King Salman bin Abdulaziz.

“The solution is to supervise yourselves to build schools, homes, hospitals, and playgrounds,” Ali added.

He also went further, stating that, should any government donate money to Baghdad, he would “spit” on them.

Iraq has one of the world’s largest oil reserves and is the second-largest oil producer in the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).

The embattled Middle Eastern nation continues to rank high on Transparency International’s list for corruption, fraud, and mismanagement of state institutions, some of the most significant challenges facing the country since the fall of the former regime in 2003.

According to the organization’s 2018 Corruption Index, Iraq ranks 168th, the twelfth most corrupt country out of a total of 180 placements.

Following the Saudi pledge of the loan, prominent Saudi political analyst and journalist Turki al-Hamad described the move as a positive step but also warned of the same point raised by Ali.

“It is beautiful that the Kingdom is giving one billion dollars to Iraq. This is part of the policy of restoring Arab Iraq. But beware of handing over the amount directly to the Iraqi government, it may end up in the Iranian hands, or be swallowed in a black hole of corruption,” Hamad stated on his Twitter account.

Poor quality of basic services and living standards along with low unemployment rates, made worse by institutional corruption, have considerably curtailed the country’s development.

Mass protests began in July in Basra and spread across several southern and central provinces, including the capital of Baghdad. Participants burned down multiple governmental and party offices over the next few months, notable among them Basra’s governorate building and Iranian Consulate.

Organizers decried the low standard of living in the oil-rich province of Basra, the petroleum exports from which account for over 90 percent of the nation’s total revenue, an emblematic illustration of Iraq's wealth not reaching its population.

Though protests slowed in late 2018, they began again in December when crowds began to reiterate their frustrations, continuing to claim that officials were still failing to deliver on promises made during the runup to the last national election in May, stamping out corruption prominent among them.

Abd al-Mahdi said on January 9 that he would make every effort to allow the council to play a successful role. On Dec. 31, he said he wanted to re-establish the council in order to “take deterrent measures, unite the regulators’ efforts, address corruption and protect public funds.”

The council’s re-establishment comes after last year’s issuance of a report by Transparency International that ranked Iraq ranked 169th out of 180 countries in terms of corruption.
