MP Dunya Al-Shammari confirmed today, Wednesday, that there is a trend in the House of Representatives to extend the current legislative session for one month.
Al-Shammari said in a statement to Al-Maalouma Agency, “The House of Representatives will enter its legislative recess in the coming few days, and there are still important laws that need to be passed, as they have been suspended due to political and legal disputes regarding them.”
She added: “After the election of Al-Mashhadani, there is a trend towards extending the legislative term for one month by the Parliament Presidency with the aim of deciding the vote on the controversial laws during this extension, as it is not possible to delay the passage of these laws until after the legislative holiday, which lasts for two months,” explaining that “this extension will provide an additional opportunity for the government to send the draft general budget law for the year 2025, which is supposed to be sent before the end of this year.”
The Coordination Framework had earlier called on the House of Representatives to extend its legislative term and to shorten its recess.
