MP Mohammed al-Kroushi confirmed on Saturday that the draft general budget law has not yet reached the Council of Representatives, noting that its details and articles remain unclear, pending its submission by the government for review and study.
Al-Kroushi told Al-Maalouma that “Parliament is waiting for the draft budget to arrive in order to review its articles and details and determine its financial and economic priorities,” explaining that “the Council will begin studying it immediately upon its submission in preparation for proceeding with the necessary legislative procedures.”
He added that “voting on the budget will not take long after its review is completed, given its direct importance to the lives of citizens and its connection to various service and economic sectors.”
He pointed out that “approving the budget represents an important step to ensure the continuation of government projects and to revitalize the Iraqi economy, in addition to its impact on providing the necessary financial allocations for various institutions and sectors.”
He pointed out that “the delay in the budget’s arrival does not serve the requirements of the current phase, especially since many service and development projects depend on the approval of financial allocations,” noting that “the House of Representatives attaches great importance to this matter and will work to resolve it as quickly as possible after the draft budget arrives and is reviewed.”
It is worth mentioning that the budget was scheduled to be voted on in recent days, but Kurdish demands regarding allocations and the region’s share have hindered the vote.
