Parliamentary Finance: The budget will be passed "easily"
5/21/2023
Baghdad
The Parliamentary Finance Committee suggested,
on Sunday, that the draft budget would be completed tomorrow, Monday, at
the latest, indicating that the law would be passed “easily.”
Committee member Jamal Cougar said, “The draft budget will
be completed within the Finance Committee on Monday at the latest, because the
remaining matters do not exceed three paragraphs and all matters have been resolved,
as the issue of the region’s share remains, the issue of transfers is resolved,
and the issue of the paragraphs that parliament intends to add to the budget.”
".
And he added, “As for passing the budget, it will be
passed easily for a number of reasons, the first of which is that everyone is
waiting for the budget because it serves all segments of society, and secondly,
that the blocs that make up the government are themselves in control of
Parliament and therefore the oversight apparatus will go to pass the budget
easily, and thirdly that there are no major changes that have occurred.” on the
budget, and therefore what came from the government will mostly be passed.”
He explained, "This year's budget will be passed with
its deficit, and as for the budget of the next two years, a restriction has
been added to it, which is that the government is mandated to send
schedules," ruling out that "there will be an appeal from Parliament
in the draft budget, because it is possible that the budget is presented to
(the coalition of management State) or there is a session for him regarding it,
and thus Parliament will not delay in voting on it after it has been voted on
in the Finance Committee.
In an interview with the official Al-Sabah newspaper,
Cougar said, "The amendments that arrived from the government to the draft
budget are simple, as the numbers are the same, but there is a variable number,
which is the number of the region's employees, which has changed, as the number
has been reduced, not increased." LINK

Deepwoodz Some have said... “How
can Iraq afford to come out with such a high exchange rate of 3+ ? How can they
afford to pay out to all the other holders of dinars in the world and stay
wealthy?” That answer is simple and also explains how their budget
can be so big. They don’t actually “pay” it out. The world is in
agreement ie..the IMF, the World Bank, and all the other countries who hold
dinar, that their currency should be 3+. Who holds the most dinar,
soon the most valuable currency in the world? IRAQ DOES.

FIREFLY: We have been told for weeks that the budget will be approved
with no problem but they keep backing it up and it seems to be something big
is up. We knowing about the HCL is part of the budget so we know it's not
going to be like other budgets. We know we're going to be getting ours as
well. Something is happening... FRANK: Yeah! It's kind
of like the tremors just before the major eruption of the volcano.
