MP Hussein al-Saabri affirmed on Saturday that the upcoming parliament is required to overcome all political differences and proceed with enacting the oil and gas law, as it is one of the most prominent pieces of legislation postponed from previous sessions.
Al-Saabri told the Information Agency that “enacting the law will establish a clear legal framework for managing oil and gas resources and guarantee the rights of all parties, thus enhancing fairness in revenue distribution and reducing ongoing disputes.”
He added that “postponing the law over the past years has negatively impacted the national economy and led to continued disagreements regarding oil management and export,” explaining that “the next phase requires genuine political will to resolve this vital issue, which is directly linked to the state budget and its economic stability.”
