An informed source reported on Monday that the Ministry of Finance and the Accounting Department have decided to postpone the disbursement of salaries for employees of ministries and government departments for three days due to a temporary shortage of cash liquidity.
The source told Al-Maalomah that “this measure prompted the Parliamentary Finance Committee to take urgent action, as it intends to summon the Minister of Finance and the Directors General of the Accounting and Budget Departments in the coming hours.”
The source added that “the summons will be held within the committee or in the Parliament building to provide an urgent briefing to the public and the legislative authority regarding the current cash liquidity situation and the reasons that led to this emergency halt in the salary funding process.”
