The financial advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Saleh, confirmed today, Friday, that all salaries are secured and the financial situation is stable, while he indicated that the delay in salaries is due to temporary procedures for disbursement mechanisms and financial timings.
Saleh said in a press statement followed by Al-Furat News: “Any limited delay that may occur in the disbursement of salaries is not in itself a financial crisis, nor does it reflect a shortage of resources or a breach of obligations, but rather it is due to temporary organizational and procedural considerations related to disbursement mechanisms and the management of financial timings.”
He affirmed that “salaries, pensions, and social welfare allowances are fully secured within the approved financial framework,” noting that “regular disbursement is the general rule, with the possibility of limited time differences in some exceptional cases, without this affecting financial stability or the ability to meet entitlements.”
Saleh stressed that “the financial situation is stable, and liquidity management will continue in a way that ensures the sustainability of public spending and protects the incomes of employees, retirees and social welfare beneficiaries, while working to reduce any delays to the lowest possible level, within the priorities of spending in public finance.”
