The House of Representatives’ Oil, Gas, and Natural Resources Committee acknowledged on Sunday that political differences are impeding the passage of the oil and gas law, stressing that consensus between Baghdad and Erbil is a prerequisite for its passage.
Committee member Bassem Al-Gharibawi told Al-Maalouma News Agency that “disagreements between the federal government and the Kurdistan Region are hindering the passage of the law in parliament.”
He pointed out that “political ambiguity remains an obstacle to resolving the issue during the current parliamentary session.”
He pointed out that “the law is considered controversial legislation, and it can only be passed with political consensus among all parties.”
