A parliamentary committee explains the main reason behind obstructing the oil and gas law
Information / Baghdad…
On Monday, member of the Parliamentary Oil and Natural Resources Committee, Kazem Al-Touki, explained the main reason behind obstructing the passage and resolution of the oil and gas law, pointing out that the approval of the law will be delayed until the controversial issues between Baghdad and Erbil regarding the law are resolved.
Al-Touki told Al-Maalouma, “Despite the government’s moves and the continued work of the technical and negotiating committees formed regarding the oil and gas law last year, the law has not yet seen the light.”
He added, “The Oil and Gas Committee was moving towards the heads of the political blocs in order to ensure that the aforementioned law is resolved and delivered to Parliament for legislation before the recess of the Council’s last legislative term.”
He stated, “There is a stalemate regarding the oil and gas law, as the Kurds have obstructed the resolution of the law after the problems they raised regarding Article 140 and the disputed areas. In the end, the law will be delayed until a consensus is reached between the political parties regarding its passage.”
