Federal Court rejects appeal against budget tables filed by MP

Shafaq News/ The Federal Court rejected on Tuesday the appeal submitted by MP Raed Al-Maliki against Parliamentary Resolution No. 64 of 2024 regarding the approval of the House of Representatives of the budget schedules.
Al-Maliki said in a statement received by Shafaq News Agency, “The court justified its response by the lack of jurisdiction to consider the appeal in its form submitted against the parliamentary decision.”
He added, “What is required for the appeal? Perhaps you mean that it should be submitted directly against the schedules, and in this case also the appeal will be rejected based on the provisions of the internal regulations that prevent (non-governmental bodies) from appealing, whether they are representatives of the people or citizens (Article 22 of the internal regulations).”
He pointed out that “at the same time, the court rejected the appeal submitted by the member of the Finance Committee (MP Mustafa Al-Karaawi) who challenged the schedules, and justified the response by saying that he had no interest in the appeal.”
Al-Maliki continued, “It was expected that the appeals would be rejected because the court would give priority to what it considers to be the supreme interest of the state by proceeding with the implementation of the budget schedules and would not set things back regardless of the existence of valid legal reasons for the appeal.”
