The deputy of the Alliance of Raiders Riyad Al-Masoudi affirmed on Wednesday that the parliament and the government do not want to make the same mistake that the previous government made in 2014 when it went toward not approving the budget, warning of a repeat of the 2014 scenario of losing money without closing accounts.

Al-Masoudi said in a statement to "Information", that "the budget will pass in any way despite the large financial deficit", noting that "the lack of approval of the 2014 budget as well as the lack of final accounts confused the work of the legislative and executive authorities."

He added that "the greatest risk that Iraq will be exposed to when it goes towards an estimated budget and not an actual one in which spending will take place without legislation by the House of Representatives."

Al-Masoudi pointed out that, "given the vacancy of the post of prime minister after his resignation was accepted by the House of Representatives, renewed fears among the House of Representatives of the repetition of the events of 2014 in relation to the non-approval of the budget."

Despite the participation of 76 countries during its contract in 2018, the Prime Minister's advisor for financial affairs, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, affirmed that Iraq only received “moral support and goodwill” from the Kuwait International Conference for the Reconstruction of Iraq.

Iraq".

He added that "the Secretariat of the Council of Ministers was running the work at the time and submitted a document of pledges," noting that "40% of countries answered the document that was submitted and 60% did not answer."

He stressed that "the countries that answered the document were limited to granting commercial loans," noting that "the Kuwait conference supported Iraq morally only."

He pointed out that "all credit facilities and investments in order to rebuild what was destroyed by the war were just pledges that did not take their way to the course of implementation."

He explained that "what was previously implemented was called (the Stability Cell) provided by the United Nations, the World Bank, international agencies and the European Union gave aid to the liberated areas to return the displaced, build the main infrastructure and remove mines," noting that "the amount of this aid does not exceed two billion dollars."

". He added, "The government is following up the file of the Kuwait conference, but some of them present difficult conditions," noting that "the other side is hesitant, but these pledges exceeded only good intentions." 

He continued, "There are no sums transferred to Iraq after the conference, except for a very weak thing that does not amount to the reconstruction of all liberated areas."

The pledges made by the countries participating in the Kuwait Conference for the Reconstruction of Iraq amounted to 30 billion dollars on the third and final day, so that such aid be in the form of loans, credit facilities and investments provided to Iraq in order to rebuild what was destroyed by the war. 

In a press statement, Kuwaiti Foreign Minister Sheikh Sabah Al-Khaled Al-Sabah said at the time that "the commitment of the international community to Iraq was clear during the conference" with a total amount of 30 billion dollars.

It is based on  new rate, in MHO! Iran and there parliamentary puppets will be delaying it...

I don’t like to start rumours, but why has the budget been delayed to April? What happens in April and what’s happened every year in April for the past 30-40 years, except on two separate occasions which has been September? What happened in September? What happens if the budget is primed when the rate could possibly change?

I am personally excited for the next three months, it will come soon enough. But will it require a new pm? I would say with trump in office he would want to see a pm not backed or tied to Iran! 

I agree screwball.. something is up.. They are waiting till April to start passing the budget, and the GOI still hasn’t received it from the COM?? Why? Because they are hiding the new rate IMO.. I think it could pop anytime between now and April. If they are really waiting till the end of Q1, then we will have the change around late March, early April.. I think all the PM crap is just something to pass time.. we will see, time will tell.

 The legal expert, Ali Al-Tamimi, confirmed that "there is an agreement to combat administrative and financial corruption for the year 2005 and Iraq joined it in 2007," noting that "this agreement allows Iraq to request assistance in recovering the smuggled money, which was estimated at 500 billion dollars."

The House of Representatives had voted at its twenty - seventh on the proposal of the Federal Finance Administration Law No. (6) for the year 2019

This is laughable. First they say the old government cannot pass the budget because the old government cannot authorize the budget for the incoming government and to wait until they get signed in. They even went through and calculated 1/12th the budget from last year for each month the 2020 budget does not get passed. Make up your god-forsaken minds. Either the old could have passed the budget or it could not. Whine or whine not. Cheese pleese!
