 Parliamentary Talk About Financial Dues To Oil-Producing Governorates

Economy  2024-02-09  Today, Friday, the Parliamentary Oil, Gas and Natural Resources Committee called for granting the oil-producing governorates their dues in the budget for the current year.

Committee member Bassem Al-Gharibawi said in a press interview, “The budget includes a law under which oil-producing governorates are granted financial dues in the event that the price of oil rises above the number specified in the budget, but this matter has not been implemented.”

He added, "There is an urgent need for action by Parliament, especially the Finance and Strategic Planning Committees, to follow up on the dues of the oil-producing governorates in order to ensure that they obtain their dues within the budget."

He confirmed, "There are actual parliamentary movements to ensure that the dues reach the producing governorates," explaining, "The Parliamentary Oil Committee did not approach the federal government regarding this matter, but it moved toward the Ministry of Oil to find out the extent of its implementation of the government program and curriculum."  https://kirkuktv.net/AR/Details/19585
