Mary B Posted June 28, 2020 Report Share Posted June 28, 2020 Sunday, June 28, 2020 Banks: We are waiting for a notification from the Finance Ministry to launch salaries within 24 hours A source at the Ministry of Finance revealed on Sunday that government banks are awaiting a notice to release the salaries for the employees of the month of June. The source said that it is hoped that the notice will reach the banks to launch and pay salaries within the next 24 hours. Yesterday, Saturday, the Prime Minister, Mustafa Al-Kazemi, directed the Ministry of Finance to expel the salaries of employees. The Iraqi government is struggling to secure employee salaries and other operating expenses due to the collapse in oil prices due to the Corona pandemic, which has paralyzed large sectors of the world economy. The country relies on revenue from the sale of crude to finance 95 percent of the country's expenditures. And Finance Minister Ali Allawi, had warned in statements, on Wednesday, that the Iraqi economy may face "shocks that it will not be able to deal with" unless reform measures are adopted in less than a year, stressing that 40 million Iraqis will have to submit to a tight austerity policy It may last "two years". Projections indicate that the Iraqi economy will face a 10 percent contraction during the year. With one out of every five Iraqis receiving government aid, the bill becomes heavier for the country that depends on paying all its expenditures on oil sales revenue. And at the beginning of this month, when pensions were deducted in the first steps of the government austerity policy, the protest was unanimous against Allawi and Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi, even within the parliament that is usually mandated to approve reforms, especially the fight against corruption that led to the evaporation of more than 450 billion Dollars of public money since 2003. https://www.thebaghdadpost.com/ar/Story/197656/المصارف-ننتظر-إشعارا-من-المالية-لإطلاق-الرواتب-خلال-24-ساعة 3 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary B Posted June 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Parliamentary finance shows the reason for delaying the payment of salaries for the month of June 29/06/2020 Information / Baghdad .. The Parliamentary Finance Committee attributed, on Monday, the delay in the disbursement of employee salaries and grants for the month of June to the lack of cash liquidity, explaining that the reason for this is due to the failure of the amount borrowed from local banks to the state treasury recently approved by Parliament. Member of the Committee, Representative Jamal Cougar, said in a statement to "Information", that "the delay in the process of disbursing salaries and grants for the month of June is due to the absence of cash at the public treasury." He added that “the main reason for the delay in salaries is the delay in receiving financial loans from local banks that Parliament allowed the government to borrow on paying salaries”, stressing that “the coming days will be the salaries paid to those who are entitled to them.” Cougar pointed out that "the amounts of internal loans will suffice to pay salaries between four and five months and the government must urgently undertake financial reforms to avoid dumping the state treasury with internal or external debts."

6ly410 Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Parliamentary finance is surprised by the non-payment of employees salaries despite the provision of liquidity Editing Date: 6/29/2020 19:38 • 62 times read Ayna News - Baghdad Member of Parliamentary Finance Committee MP Ahmad Al-Saffar confirmed on Monday that the reasons for delaying the salaries of state employees are unknown to the committee despite the availability of funds in Iraqi banks. Al-Saffar said, "It is assumed that the salary payment instruction should start since the passage of the internal and external borrowing law because the law is in effect from the time of formal voting in Parliament, in addition to that there is an official directive from the government to the Ministry of Finance to expedite the disbursement." He added, "The financial liquidity is in the banks, but we do not yet know why the Ministry of Finance was late in spending it," expressing his hope to "expedite the payment of salaries at the earliest opportunity possible, especially as millions depend on them for their livelihoods." The House of Representatives was closer last Wednesday to the internal and external borrowing law to give more room to the government to secure the payment of salaries to state employees. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6ly410 Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Despite the reassurances, apprehension about the delay in salaries turns into a "political stick" surrounding the government ... the funds are "available", but! http://iraqtoday.com/news/42682/رغم-التطمينات--توجس-من-تأخير-الرواتب-يتحول-لـعصا-سياسية-تحاصر-الحكومة-الأموال-متوفرة-ولكن Policy , 2020/06/30 00:20 , Number of readings: 483 Baghdad - Iraq today: In spite of the continuous assurances by the government about the fate of the employees ’salaries, especially after the parliament voted on a decision that allows the government to borrow, the signs of salary delay are beginning to appear and employees feel, while the crisis may begin to turn into a" political stick "that is being waved against Al-Kazemi’s government. Some tweets on social media began to shed light on salary delays, while some used them as a "political stick" to brand them against the Al-Kazemi government. On the political level, considered the leader of the coalition of state law Nuri al-Maliki, that the funds are available with the government, but it was late to spend it to employees. Al-Maliki said in a tweet that "after the issuance of the borrowing law, the government has an opportunity to borrow from the central bank and other banks," noting that "this means that the required funds are available to disburse the citizens' salaries that are overdue while they are in financial and health distress." He called "the government and the concerned ministry not to disrupt salaries and expedite the payment of them to citizens without delay." Why are salaries delayed? And revealed the decision of the Finance Committee in the House of Representatives, Ahmed Al-Saffar, a problem that delayed the distribution of employee salaries, while stressing the direction to solve it. Al-Saffar said, in press statements, that "the government is obligated to distribute the salaries of employees as soon as possible, and the salaries are late and the government feels the conditions of people, and it is necessary to find a specific mechanism for the delivery of salaries, whether in relative terms, or to specify specific days for the distribution of salaries." He pointed out that "Parliament agreed to borrow from banks for the salaries of employees," noting that "the problem of delay is the availability of financial liquidity, but it will be resolved." What is the problem? For his part, the independent deputy in the Iraqi parliament, Muhammad Shi'a Al-Sudani, announced that the employees ’salaries are guaranteed for the next six months. "Our financial problems are represented by the multiplicity of accounts. For example, some time ago from now, there was a billion dollars in the sumo company account, and this amount was spent to pay salaries," Al-Sudani said. Al-Sudani indicated that there is a "round account for ministries that have not spent their budgets, investment plans and projects, and these are all controlled." He added that when collecting all these accounts "we have more than this amount, and for this I say there is no problem with the issue of employee salaries during these six months and you will be insured with the obtaining of the loan." Al-Kazemi directs the disbursement of salaries and Al-Kazemi stressed in a meeting with the Minister of Finance, Ali Abdel Amir Allawi, the release of salaries without delay, and that the Ministry work with all its capabilities to put the solutions that were discussed into practice, stressing that the government apparatus is continuing to maximize non-oil revenues and find financial cover for salaries employees. He pointed out that "the current financial crisis constitutes an opportunity to face the challenge of implementing financial and administrative reform, and that the government has resolved to proceed with this reform until it is positively reflected on economic development, and the provision of welfare and good governance to all Iraqis." Iraq relies on oil sales revenue to finance 95 percent of the country's expenditures, but the country has lost about $ 11 billion since the beginning of this year, due to lower oil prices, according to data from the Iraqi Oil Ministry. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
