A member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee said that the House of Representatives intends to question five ministers.
In a press statement, Jamal Cougar said, “Five ministers are scheduled to be questioned during the upcoming parliamentary sessions, according to the words of Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi,” explaining that “the ministers are electricity, finance, agriculture, industry, planning or higher education.”
He pointed out that “among the axes of the questioning of the Minister of Finance under the dome of Parliament is what is related to the Central Bank of Iraq, as well as the exchange rate of the dollar against the dinar, as well as the large general budget number, in addition to the issue of neglecting their contracts breached.”
And the Iraqi Ministry of Finance confirmed earlier, that the 2021 budget did not include any allocations for those whose contracts were canceled.
Earlier, a number of deputies close to the crowd indicated that the return of those whose contracts had been canceled from the popular crowd to service was included in the 2021 budget, with two signs to confirm the clause of adding 30,000 job degrees to restore their contracts with canceled members of the Popular Mobilization Forces.
It is noteworthy that the Central Bank of Iraq has resorted to reducing the price of the dinar against the dollar, in order to reduce the deficit in the federal budget for the year 2021, but with the rise in oil prices, expectations have spread about raising the exchange rate of the dinar against the dollar again.
