20 years of this foolishness and we're supposed to buy into this as if was '05 ? 

Their larcenous ways have been on display for a very long time. The Good Guys you could stash into a VW Beetle, the Bad Guys? Well how many passenger  buses does Iraq have first off: we'll begin there and see if Iran has a few buses to spare in case the number count goes sky high.

Criticism of the Ministry of Finance for the delay in issuing budget instructions
 

Baghdad - Nas  

Nearly 50 days after approving the country's budget for the years 2023, 2024, and 2025, most government departments are still awaiting implementation instructions issued by the Ministry of Finance, in light of widespread controversy over the reasons for the delay.

Representative Mustafa Al-Karawi suggested that this week be a date for launching the instructions for implementing the budget by the Ministry of Finance, indicating that the articles challenged by the government will not affect the budget, but were limited to some paragraphs that do not affect the whole.  

  

For his part, economist Nabil Al-Tamimi said that the delay in issuing instructions for the current year's budget indicates the existence of government failure represented by the Ministry of Finance.

 Baghdad: Shaima Rasheed

The Parliamentary Finance Committee called on the Ministries of Finance and Planning to issue instructions for budget items and release them without invoking some of the contested items, which are few and not major.


Committee member Mustafa Al-Karawi said, in an interview with “Al-Sabah”: “The delay in issuing budget instructions is incorrect, given that there is no real and legal justification for disabling the main expenditures related to employee compensation or the investment budget. It includes simple classes of society.


Al-Karawi added, "The Ministries of Finance and Planning are very late in issuing budget instructions after more than a month has passed since their issuance in the Official Gazette, and therefore the government must issue instructions as quickly as possible in order to proceed with the implementation of the budget items," calling for "leaving the arguments of the contested articles as they are Few and not major, and the government can proceed with the rest of the items clearly.”


He continued, "Until now, there is no real and realistic justification for delaying these instructions, and the government will be pressured to issue them by the Finance Committee."

Parliamentary Finance: The delay in implementing the budget is worrying and unprecedented
  
{Local: Al Furat News} A member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Faisal Al-Naili, said today, Tuesday, that the delay in issuing budget instructions is a matter of concern, and we hoped that these instructions would be issued if the budget was approved on June 12.
 

Al-Naeli said in a statement to {Euphrates News}, that "the Ministry of Finance has perceptions of all paragraphs of the budget, and that the rest of them are amendments or additions added by the House of Representatives, and that they are not difficult or complex materials that need approvals."

 

He added that the delay is accounted for by the Ministry of Finance, especially since previous years did not delay these instructions by more than 10 days after their approval.

It is noteworthy that, after nearly 51 days of approving Iraq's budget for the years 2023, 2024, and 2025, most government departments are still awaiting implementation instructions issued by the Ministry of Finance in light of widespread controversy over the reasons for the delay.

 

Despite the fact that the budget was published in the Official Gazette after its approval, and then it was recently corrected and entered into force, the departments are not able to act on its provisions, except after approval of the implementation instructions by the Ministry of Finance.


Finance Minister Taif Sami had reported earlier that the ministry had intensified its efforts to expedite the issuance of procedures for reviewing the instructions for implementing the federal general budget for the years 2023, 2024 and 2025 No. 13 of 2023, which was recently approved by Parliament.

Parliamentary Finance: Routine procedures for two ministries contributed to delaying the implementation of the budget

2023-08-01 07:42

Shafaq News/ A member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Yahya Al-Muhammadi revealed today, Tuesday, the existence of administrative and routine procedures from the Ministries of Finance and Planning that contributed to an "unintentional" delay in implementing the budget law, calling on the two ministries to expedite the completion of their work in this regard.

 

Al-Mohammadi told Shafaq News agency, "An unintentional delay in completing the instructions of the budget law by the Ministries of Finance and Planning contributed to the delay in implementing the budget law in ministries and state institutions."

 

Al-Muhammadi added, "We asked the Parliamentary Finance Committee from the two ministries to expedite the publication of the budget instructions," noting that "administrative and routine procedures delayed the implementation of the budget law, and there is no intention in that."

 

And the deputy added, "The Ministry of Finance will, in the coming days, publish the instructions of the budget law and send them to the ministries and state institutions."

And the Iraqi parliament voted, at dawn today, Monday, June 12, on the federal budget law for the years 2023, 2024, 2025, after discussions that lasted for five days.

 

The value of the current year budget is 197 trillion and 828 billion Iraqi dinars (about 152.2 billion dollars), with a total deficit of 63 trillion dinars (48.3 billion dollars), while the items of the 2023 and 2024 budgets have not been published.

 

On June 21, 2023, the President of the Republic, Abdul Latif Jamal Rashid, approved the Federal Public Finance Law.

 

Last July, the Federal Supreme Court (the highest judicial authority in Iraq) issued a state order regarding some articles of the country's tripartite financial budget law.

 

The state order included suspending the implementation of the following articles (Article 28 / Fourth: A - B), (57 / First - C), (65 / Second), (70 / Second), (71) and (75) of Law No. ( 13) for the year 2023 (the federal general budget of the Republic of Iraq for the fiscal years (2023 – 2024 – 2025) until a decision is made on the constitutional case filed before this court to challenge its constitutionality, registered in the number (153 / federal / 2023).

 

Prime Minister Muhammad Shia al-Sudani had requested the issuance of a state order against Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi regarding the above articles, according to the statement issued by the Federal Court.

 

Sabhan Al-Mulla Jiyad, Advisor to the Prime Minister for Political Affairs, suggested last June that the government would challenge some of the budget articles.
