Shafaq News/ The Federal Supreme Court (FSC), Iraq's highest judicial authority, on Wednesday ordered both Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani and Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) Prime Minister Masrour Barzani to centralize the salaries of public sector employees in federal banks.

 

The FSC held a special session earlier on Wednesday to consider two cases: the salaries of public sector employees and the election law in the Kurdistan Region.

 

FSC Chief Justice Jassim Mohammed Aboud al-Amiri read the verdict on the case of the salaries of the region, which obliges both Sudani and Barzani to centralize the salaries of all employees of government agencies in the center and the region in federal banks outside the Kurdistan Region.

 

The court also decided to oblige the submission of the monthly budget for the employees of the region to the federal Ministry of Finance, with the obligation of the Council of Ministers of the region to hand over all oil and non-oil revenues to the federal government.

 

The ruling according to the statement, is "final and compelling".

"Joy and optimism" in Kurdish popular circles after the localization of their salaries in federal banks

Politics | Today, 18:56 | 

    "Joy and optimism" in Kurdish popular circles after the localization of their salaries in federal banks » Baghdad News Agency Today (baghdadtoday.news)

 

Baghdad Today - Sulaymaniyah

The "positive" reactions in the Kurdish street continued after the decisions of the Federal Court, on Wednesday (February 21, 2024), regarding the localization of the salaries of employees of the Kurdistan region in federal banks, as well as obliging Baghdad and Erbil to pay their salaries.

The Kurdistan region is experiencing a stifling financial crisis that has hit all joints of the economy and most vital sectors, and stopped the construction movement and service projects, due to the salary crisis that has been going on for years, as a result of the lack of agreement between the federal government and the Kurdistan Regional Government.

A decision binding on all authorities

Economic expert Shahuz Omar said, "The decision of the Federal Court is final and binding on all authorities, so the regional government is obliged to implement it."

He added, in his speech to "Baghdad Today" that "this decision will have positive repercussions on all aspects of life in the Kurdistan region affected, and there are sectors that have disappeared due to the salary crisis, because the regional government saves salaries and delays their disbursement."

He added that "the movement of markets will recover, because shop owners, traders and all sectors depend mainly in the cities of the region on employees and tourists, and the movement of commercial and market movement has become almost paralyzed during the recent period."

He explained that "if the Kurdish employee in Kurdistan receives his salary every month and through the "Mastercard", he will stabilize financially, and thus this stability will be reflected in the gradual return of life to the movement of the market, especially in luxury items, which stopped their work, and increased unemployment rates."

On the other hand, Kurdish social researcher Tanya Kamal confirmed that, "The decision of the Federal Court will reflect positively on the situation of the family and Kurdish society in general."

She told Baghdad Today that "the delay in the payment of salaries, deductions and savings had negative consequences on the situation of Kurdish families, created psychological problems, and even increased divorce rates, and created an atmosphere that is not suitable for the family."

She pointed out that "the payment of salaries every month through the MasterCard and by a decision of the Federal Court will contribute to the return of stability to the Kurdish family, and will gradually reduce the social impact."

The decision is very important

The employees of the region believe that this decision is very important, and commend the decision of the Federal Court that did justice to the employee in Kurdistan, who has been suffering from suffocating crises for years.

Sulaymaniyah teacher Awan Mohammed said, "This decision is very important, and its benefits are numerous, and it will restore stability and life to the Kurdish citizen."

He explained in his speech to "Baghdad Today" that "the localization of salaries in federal banks is very important, because the employee in Kurdistan will enjoy the same privileges enjoyed by the employee in the central and southern provinces of loans and the purchase of cars in installments and others."

Citizens and workers in other non-functional specialties expressed their joy with the decision, considering it positive and will reflect on the lives of the general people in Kurdistan, from taxi drivers, public transport lines, merchants, and shop owners, as well as the return of life to the real estate market, industry and investment in general.

Earlier in the day, the Federal Court issued a final and binding decision to the federal government and the regional government, to pay the salaries of Kurdistan employees from federal banks, to be deducted from the region's share in the budget.

My thoughts exactly! Is this the same "supreme court" that ruled in Warka's favor and told the CBI to "compensate and rehabilitate" way back in 2013 and the CBI has ignored that ruling for 11 years?
