The Finance Committee of the House of Representatives expected, on Tuesday, that the budget schedules will reach the parliament by the middle of this month, stressing the importance of completing job promotions after the parliament approves the schedules related to them. The head of the Finance Committee, Atwan Al-Atwani, explained that stopping deletions and innovations in state institutions came based on the budget provisions, which included stopping appointments and confiscating job grades from institutions and transferring them to the Ministry of Finance, without using them in deletions and innovations.
He pointed out that this procedure caused a problem in which institutions were unable to benefit from these degrees to appoint graduates or fill vacant positions.
Al-Atwani added: “We are waiting for the budget tables to reach Parliament, as the budget does not allow for appointments, whether on a daily wage, contract basis, or on a permanent basis. However, contracted employees receive their salaries from the government through ministries and institutions, and therefore their confirmation is not considered a new appointment, but rather their inclusion in the job description.”
He pointed out that the Finance Committee is currently communicating with the Ministry of Finance and is awaiting a letter from the State Council to clarify this concept, stressing that there is a clear difference between appointment and permanent employment, calling for the permanent employment of contracted employees within the job description in accordance with the legal frameworks.
As for promotions, Al-Atwani stressed the need to proceed with them after the House of Representatives approves the relevant schedules, expecting the government to send the budget schedules by the middle of this month or before the end of it, which will contribute to addressing these important files.
