MP Ahmed Al-Sharmani expressed his concern today, Monday, regarding the delay in sending the 2025 budget tables by the government to the House of Representatives, noting that the parliament is still not aware of the details of these tables until now.
Al-Sharmani said in a statement to Al-Maalouma Agency, “According to the Financial Management Law, the budget tables must be sent to the House of Representatives at the end of October of each year, and delaying this is a legal violation, especially since this delay has been repeated annually for years,” explaining that “the current delay is another legal violation, as there is no specific date for sending the budget tables.”
He added, “There is a possibility that the government is linking the sending of these tables to the amendment of the law proposed in Parliament, which will lead to an additional long delay in light of the ongoing disagreements over the amendment.”
He pointed out that “the House of Representatives is still not aware of the 2025 budget schedules yet, and there is no specific date for sending these schedules.”
It is noteworthy that the government has not sent the budget tables yet due to many disagreements over adding $16 per barrel of oil in the Kurdistan Region.
