{Economical: Al Furat News} A member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee said that “there is convergence regarding the share of the Kurdistan Region in the draft federal budget law for the current year 2021.”
Sherwan Mirza said in a press statement, “The Kurdish blocs are waiting for the Shiite blocs to present their last opinion regarding the region’s share,” noting that “there is convergence between the two sides in opinions.”
He added, “The government proposal and the proposal of the Shiite blocs are close.”
Mirza ruled out “passing the budget law in the House of Representatives without the Kurds,” noting that “there may be a final agreement regarding the region’s share in the last moments before the vote on the bill in the parliament session scheduled for next Monday.”
The Speaker of Parliament, Muhammad al-Halbousi, had directed in the last session to include the draft federal budget bill for 2021 in the parliament session scheduled for next Monday, based on a request submitted by Representative Yusef al-Kalabi signed by 150 deputies.
