Yep. Hopeless & Feckless. What a disgraceful mob. I think this bunch is worse than previous governments -& that's saying something 

[Hotcurl]

I don't remember hearing of collecting signatures for the purpose of determining a date for a budget vote.

 

Personally, I think this is a Red Herring. Most of the recent articles are presented by minority groups that are not getting exactly what they want in the budget and thus all the squawking. 

 

In addition, Nour Al Maliki and his crew (pro Iranian) seem to be driving the budget bus.

 

I think, I hear a Wolf calling in the background, not sure but kinda' sounds like it ...................

Uncertainty surrounds the date of the vote on the budget

2023.06.06 - 10:21

 

Baghdad - people  

While political and parliamentary statements continue regarding it, the fate of the voting date on the “general budget” has become pending and shrouded in ambiguity until the moment. Between the insistence of influential parties that have their weight in the parliamentary and political body to set a date for the voting session in the House of Representatives, others believe that the horizon of the date is still unclear. landmarks.  

  

 

  

Yesterday, Monday, Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi met with the Secretary-General of the League of the Righteous, Qais al-Khazali, to discuss the need to expedite the passage of the budget.

Meanwhile, the head of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Atwan Al-Atwani, called on the Presidency of Parliament "to expedite the convening of a special session, to vote on the budget, during the current week."  

  

And the deputy of the State of Law coalition, Yasser al-Maliki, announced earlier that the voting session on the budget would take place during the next two days.  

  

And he said in a tweet on "Twitter": "After strenuous efforts, the signatures of the representatives of the State of Law coalition were collected to determine the voting session on the general budget for the year 2023 during the next two days."  

  

On the other hand, the representative of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, member of the Oil and Gas Committee, Sabah Sobhi, confirmed that the political forces had not reached a final agreement regarding the share of the region.

A member of the Parliamentary Oil and Gas Committee, Bassem Naghimish, said: “The problem is only in the budget for this year 2023, because according to the financial management law, the first year of the three-year budget is obligatory, and in the subsequent two years the budget is optional and can be amended with a proposal from the Finance and Planning and the approval of the Council of Ministers.” And the representatives, so the fear is only from this year, and as for the next year, there may be an adjustment to the price of the barrel or the budget number.  

  

And he indicated that "the current problem is also related to calculating the export of oil from the region at the rate of 400,000 barrels in the budget. If this process does not proceed, this amount can be directed internally in the domestic consumption in the refineries, because not exporting it causes a big problem, as it will increase the deficit."  

  

On the other hand, a member of the Parliamentary Reconstruction and Services Committee, Zuhair al-Fatlawi, said: “The committee is following up on lagging projects and new projects that have been suspended due to the lack of approval of the budget,” noting that “many old and new projects are awaiting approval of the budget.”  

  

As for the member of the committee, Representative Alaa Sukkar, he said: “The government must follow up on its stalled or lag-digging projects, and coordinate with the Reconstruction and Services Committee, which prepared plans to follow up and monitor stalled projects, including strategic projects, and their completion is in the public interest.”  

  

He stressed that "the government's work towards implementing the government program is good and continuous, and it is working on many economic directions and implementing projects, the most important of which is the (development path), which is a new artery for the Iraqi economy, in addition to being a major engine for large strategic projects that generate large funds in the public budget." .
