DinarThug Posted July 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2020 On 7/11/2020 at 2:30 PM, DinarThug said: The government begins implementing the steps of the White Paper and Parliament welcomes 11/07/2020 09:02:53 PM Baghdad / extent The Parliamentary Finance and Economy Committees welcomed the control of the security forces over the first border entry points (Mandali and Munthiriya). They said that these measures are part of the economic reform plan (the white paper) that the government has promised to implement. (Al-Mada) revealed last week that Mustafa Al-Kazimi's government is preparing to implement a broad security plan to extend its influence on all border crossings because of the extent of corruption in the outlets, which is estimated at 12 billion dollars annually. The government loses control of six border ports on a daily basis from four in the afternoon until eight in the morning the following day. Armed parties also take advantage of unauthorized outlets, and corrupt goods, merchandise, and drugs, and even forbidden materials such as drugs, are entered into Iraq in coordination with influential figures, according to officials and observers who spoke to (Al-Mada) earlier. Faisal al-Issawi, a member of the Finance Committee in the House of Representatives, said in a statement to (Al-Mada) that "the current economic situation needs radical solutions, not temporary patchwork, and therefore the House of Representatives committed the government to introduce economic reforms within sixty days starting from the date of the approval of the law of local and external borrowing ". The circumstances of the financial crisis and the repercussions of the Corona Virus pandemic prompted the government of Mustafa Al-Kazemi to present the domestic and foreign borrowing law to be able to secure the salaries of state employees. Al-Issawi explains that "in the event that the government does not comply with these deadlines (sixty days), the Finance Committee in the House of Representatives will present a proposal for an economic reform law to change the direction of the economy from an economy dependent on the state's imports to a resource-generating economy for employment and development opportunities," considering that "reliance on oil revenues The distribution of salaries is a deviation that needs to be addressed in the Economic Reform Law. Last June, Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi confirmed that his government prepared a white paper for the expected economic reforms, and took preliminary recommendations, which are being discussed before moving forward, pointing to “the need for complementarity between the government and the parliament to support system" rel="">support these new reforms.” The deputy from Anbar province confirms that "there is communication between parliament and the government through the cell of the economic crisis that formed earlier as it was agreed on the general vision of the economic paper," stressing that there is unity in "opinions and ideas between the executive and legislative branches on passing reforms". The Council of Ministers had previously decided to form an emergency cell for financial reform, headed by the Prime Minister and membership of both the Minister of Finance, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Minister of Planning, the Governor of the Central Bank, the Advisers to the Prime Minister, the Secretary General of the Council of Ministers, and a representative of the General Secretariat of the Council of Ministers. And the independent deputy adds: "We have now come up with a general perception of the white paper, and how it is directed by the government," adding that "however, there are interventions to divert the white paper path from a number of entities represented in extending the work of telecommunications companies." (Al-Mada) revealed in its report on the twenty-third of last June that "the economic white paper is made up of reform packages that will be launched and implemented in the form of three phases. The first is short-term and is represented by the state's control of border ports and ports, and tackling the corruption of the currency auction and the smuggling of hard currency, Reducing the salaries of the three presidencies and solving the problem of state real estate. The report adds, "As for the second stage of the reform paper, it will be medium-term, represented by restoring the Iraqi industry, solving the problem of corruption, and protecting the local product," pointing out that "the third stage will be long-term and includes major strategic projects." A member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee points out that "the security forces' full control of the (Mandali and Munthiriya) border executives is part of the reform plan adopted by the government, which was committed to implementing it before the parliament to save the economy." The Joint Operations Command announced in a statement that "the Rapid Response Forces and the Popular Mobilization entered the border executives (Mandali and Munthiriya) and imposed full control and inspection of them," stressing that "the allocation of elite forces to maintain them permanently to combat corruption and eliminate it, implementing measures smoothly and in accordance with the law, and imposing state prestige ". For his part, Mazen al-Faili, a member of the Economic Committee in the House of Representatives, confirms that "Parliament’s sessions at the present time have been disrupted due to the Corona crisis, which has made it impossible for us to discuss the measures of the government that I took in the recent period, especially the issue of outlets." (Al-Mada) revealed last week that Mustafa Al-Kazimi's government is preparing to announce a security plan to extend its influence over all border outlets in the governorates, where the Finance Committee in the House of Representatives estimated the extent of corruption prevailing in the border outlets at $ 12 billion annually, due to the control of armed groups and clans over These ports. In a statement to (Al-Mada), Al-Faili shows that "the parliament's economic and investment committee demands the government with the participation of parliament committees to prepare economic reforms," saying that "the government's move towards the outlets is a step in the right direction." He adds that "tightening control by the security forces on these outlets would be a precursor to going to the other border outlets, controlling them and ensuring that their revenues enter the treasury of a state."

Member of the Committee, MP Ahmad Hama told Al-Ikhbaria that "the Prime Minister is required today to launch a campaign against the corrupt and influential mafias that control and control the Iraqi ports in Basra and the border crossings, as it is the economic focal point for Iraq." He added that "eleven border outlets in Basra and the same in the Kurdistan region of Iraq are outside the control of the state and no one knows what is going on in them, especially since the volume of waste in them is estimated at about nine billion dollars annually." Hama stressed that "the currency auction sells about $ 60 billion annually to purchase goods, but it is without supervision and there are no conditions for the import of goods, which makes waste in importing billions of dollars that are the right of the people." It is noteworthy that corruption has been eating away at the state’s body and making it incapable of even paying the salaries of employees, retirees and beneficiaries of social welfare sums, and it seems that the government has launched a campaign to curb corruption, but it has not yet yielded tangible fruits. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
