Representative Salem Al-Anbuge confirmed, on Wednesday, the possibility of passing the budget without waiting for political consensus, indicating that the coordination framework has the parliamentary majority to pass laws.

In an interview with Al-Maalouma, Al-Anbuge said, “The coordination framework is serious about resolving the 2023 budget through political consensus, but if it fails to achieve its goals, the choice of the political majority will be open to deciding the fate of the budget.”

He added, “The budget will be passed by the political majority if it reaches the House of Representatives, and the presentation of the budget is currently postponed for some days, pending the outcome of the ongoing discussions now in Baghdad.”

He pointed out that “the budget, despite its complexities, but its approval is necessary because it includes dues of large segments of the people and gives flexibility to institutions to fulfill their duties.”

And the demands of some Kurdish forces caused the postponement of presenting the budget to the House of Representatives until further notice.
