The National Approach Parliamentary Bloc presented, on Friday, three notes on the new articles added to the federal budget for the fiscal year 2021.
“One of the items added to the 2021 budget obliges the Ministry of Finance to reschedule the payment of installments to those who have purchased real estate from the state and have not paid for the period from 2014-2019, and this period is counted for them as an emergency hiatus!” Said Jamal Al-Muhammadawi, a deputy for the National Approach bloc. Delay fines ,, and it is correct to differentiate between the citizen and the official in the state who buys real estate from the state, since the amount of the property that the official buys is usually very high and he is not in distress until he is granted these additional privileges from reducing debt installments or prolonging the period of repayment or exempting it Of fines, “demanding” to restrict this article so that it does not include those who were in a special degree or a director general or above from these exemptions and exceptions. ”
Al-Muhammadawi added, “One of the added items also gives an exemption from all late fines and from 50% of the accumulated interest resulting from loans and advances to those who pay them before 7/31/2021. Here, too, we must distinguish between the average citizen who borrows and between companies and well-to-do merchants, which includes By exempting the average citizen without the owners of companies and the well-to-do merchants, because we have known in previous times about loans to companies of local investors amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars, he asks: “Are these exempted from fines? Is this text consistent with the principle of maximizing revenues?”
He continued: “One of the added materials requires the Ministry of Education to invite the private sector in addition to the public to implement the printing of textbooks, and this text is strange, so why do you oblige the ministry to invite the private sector, and it is assumed that the public sector owns government presses and operating them maximizes revenues on the one hand and prevents manipulation that is similar to what happened in some years The precedent is when the book printing process is referred to a private sector company, and it prints books in countries outside Iraq, such as Jordan and Lebanon, and this is one of the remarks of the Office of Financial Supervision that makes us fear and guard against repeating these bitter experiences, so we alert Parliament to rejecting these materials and other materials we mentioned in our previous statements. .
