  •  Today, 17:32

Baghdad - conscious - Mohammed Talbi
A member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Mueen Al-Kazemi, confirmed on Sunday the holding of continuous meetings between the federal government and the Kurdistan Regional Government to resolve the drafting of the articles of the oil and gas law, and while he pointed out that it amounted to 40 articles so far and clarified the contents related to the powers, he confirmed the holding of a second round of dialogues to resolve the file.

Al-Kazemi told the Iraqi News Agency (INA) that "so far the oil and gas law has not been resolved, and there are meetings between the federal government, the Kurdistan Regional Government and the oil-producing provinces, and there is a draft of the oil and gas law prepared by the Ministry of Oil."
"The draft was discussed in a first round of meetings and there will be a second round to reach common convictions," he said.
He pointed out that "there are 40 articles in the proposed oil and gas law that include defining the powers of the federal government represented by the Federal Ministry of Oil, the powers of the oil-producing provinces and the powers of the regions, including the Kurdistan region, so that there is a state of organization and stability in positions when applying the law after its enactment in the House of Representatives."

the other day they said they were all in agreeance?? BS

Kurdish bloc: Legislation of the oil law will grant the rights of producing provinces

Information/Baghdad.

MP for the New Generation bloc, Omid Mohammed, confirmed on Monday that the legislation of the oil and gas law will grant the rights of oil-producing provinces, indicating that the legislation of the law will resolve disputes over the oil file.

 

Mohammed said in an interview with Al-Maalouma that "the legislation of the law finds a radical solution to the oil and gas problems between the federal government and the regional government, which represents one of the outstanding problems between the two sides."

He added, "The oil and gas law is one of the controversial laws that must be found a political agreement outside the dome of parliament to remove obstacles in its way."

"The legislation of the law puts everyone in front of their powers and defines them clearly, which will eliminate the existing differences over the oil file," he said.

The Oil, Gas and Natural Resources Committee has confirmed the parliament's intention to legislate the oil and gas law during the current session, while noting that the adoption of the law will contribute to solving the problems between Baghdad and Erbil. Finished / 25 hours

Baghdad forms committee of three ministers to decide on draft oil and gas law

4 hours ago
 
al
 
The Iraqi Prime Minister formed a committee of three ministers (Kurdish, Sunni and Shiite) to decide on the points of disagreement over the draft oil and gas law, as there are three points of disagreement between the Kurdistan Region and the federal government over the draft law, and a member of the Oil and Gas Committee of the Iraqi Council of Representatives says that the draft law will consist of more than 40 articles and is expected to be voted on in the Iraqi Council of Ministers within a period of two weeks to come.
 
Formation of a government committee
 
A government committee is scheduled to be formed for the purpose of resolving the draft oil and gas law and collecting the demands and observations of the oil-producing provinces and the Kurdistan Region.
 
In a statement made on Monday (August 14, 2023) to Rudaw Media Network, the Deputy Chairman of the Oil and Gas Committee of the Iraqi Council of Representatives, Nehru Rawandzi, said: "Iraqi Prime Minister Muhammad Shia Al-Sudani decided to form a committee of three Iraqi federal government ministers from the three components, Kurds, Shiites and Sunnis, to resolve the issue of the draft oil and gas law."
 
Draft laws were prepared by the Iraqi federal government in 2007 and 2011 and submitted to the Iraqi parliament, but differences between political parties prevented a vote on either.
 
What are the differences?
 
Information obtained by Rudaw Media Network indicates that the main point of contention over the draft oil and gas law is between the Kurdistan Region and the Iraqi federal government over the powers of oil and gas production, the method of managing the shared fields, and the interpretation of Article 11 of the permanent Iraqi constitution, which says that oil belongs to all Iraqis in all regions and governorates.
 
On August 5, 2023, the first meeting was held in Baghdad to discuss the issue of the draft oil and gas law with the participation of the delegation of the Kurdistan Regional Government, the federal foreign and oil ministers, representatives of the oil and gas producing governorates, and advisers to the Iraqi Prime Minister.
 
The deputy chairman of the oil and gas committee in the Iraqi parliament said that opinions were divided on two fronts, one for the oil-producing provinces such as Basra, and its opinion is close to the Kurdistan Region's opinion to grant them a special status and rely on the constitution in dealing with this issue, and another front for the provinces with low oil and gas production, which is closer to calling for centralization.
 
The sixth paragraph of Article 13 of the Iraqi Federal Budget Law says that dealing with the oil of the Kurdistan Region will be carried out in accordance with the budget law until the issuance of an oil and gas law, and the most prominent articles of the budget in this regard require that the Kurdistan Region hand over 400 thousand barrels of oil per day to the federal government in order to receive its financial dues.
 
More than 40 items
 
The ministerial curriculum of the Iraqi government headed by Muhammad Shia al-Sudani, which was voted on in the Iraqi Council of Representatives on (October 27, 2022), authorizes the Iraqi federal government and the Kurdistan Regional Government to negotiate on the oil and budget files to prepare the draft oil and gas law in accordance with the constitution and within six months of the new government assuming its duties.
 
Six months have passed and the draft oil and gas law, which is key to resolving differences between the Kurdistan Region and the Iraqi federal government, has not been prepared.
 
Ali al-Lami, a member of the parliamentary oil and gas committee, told Rudaw on Monday that the number of articles in the draft oil and gas law will exceed 40, while the number of articles in the previous two drafts was less, noting that the draft will be drafted by taking into account the views of the oil-producing provinces and in accordance with political agreements.
 
Ali al-Lami expects the draft oil and gas law to be agreed upon within the next two weeks and voted on in the Iraqi cabinet to be submitted to the House of Representatives for approval.
