A Kurdish bloc calls for accelerating the legislation of the oil and gas law
The Patriotic Union of Kurdistan parliamentary bloc has urged the government to speed up the drafting of the oil and gas law, which has been pending since 2005. They emphasized that legislating the law is the only solution to resolve the disputes between the region and the center.
The oil and gas law has not been enacted since 2005, which hinders efforts to resolve crises between Baghdad and Erbil, according to Suzanne Mansour, spokesperson for the bloc, in an interview with Agency.
During a recent statement, she emphasized that implementing the law would benefit Iraq as a whole and help resolve any conflicts between the region and the central government. She also emphasized the importance of collaboration between Baghdad and the region to expedite the process of drafting and enacting the oil and gas legislation.
She highlighted that “everyone hopes to resolve the outstanding controversial points and proceed with the procedures for legislating the law within the dome of Parliament.”
The Oil, Gas and Natural Resources Committee has confirmed Parliament’s intention to pass the oil and gas law in the current session. They have also indicated that passing the law could help resolve problems between Baghdad and Erbil.
