Member of Parliament Ahmed Al-Sharmani stressed today, Thursday, the necessity of enacting important laws that touch upon the needs of the Iraqi people and not being preoccupied with controversial laws during the last legislative year of Parliament, such as the investment, oil and gas laws.
Al-Sharmani said in an interview with Al-Maalouma Agency, “Parliamentary interest during the past period was directed towards protocol laws such as voting on the olive oil agreement, which the Iraqi street criticized a lot and considered it useless for it,” indicating that “Iraq needs to reconsider the status of retirees and employees, the landlords’ law, people with special needs, slums, the housing crisis and unemployment.”
He added, “Among the important laws that must be activated are the investment law and the oil and gas law, as it is a very important sovereign and economic law,” stressing that “the people are waiting for such important laws, not controversial laws that are of no use.”
He added, “We hope that parliamentary work during the last legislative year of the parliament in its fifth session will be in touch with the needs of the Iraqi citizen and will legislate laws that actually serve him and have an impact on reality.”
It is noteworthy that the House of Representatives failed during the last legislative session to pass the controversial laws (personal status, general amnesty, and the law to return properties confiscated by the decisions of the defunct Baath regime to their owners) despite holding several sessions to vote on them. It is scheduled to resume the sessions of the new legislative session on January 9.
