Tomorrow.. The Iraqi Council of Ministers approves the 2024 budget schedules

5/6/2024

 

The Financial Advisor to the Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad S alih, revealed on Monday new details related to the budget lists and schedules for the year 2024, which are still under discussion in the Iraqi Council of Ministers.

Speaking to Shafaq News Agency, Saleh suggested that the Council of Ministers, in a session tomorrow, Tuesday, will discuss and approve the budget law schedules, and then send them to the House of Representatives as soon as possible.

The Sudanese advisor explained, “The percentage of the deficit in the budget tables is unknown, and it will be determined according to the tables that will be approved by the Council of Ministers, before sending them to the House of Representatives.”

According to what was stated in Law No. 13 of 2023, the lists and tables of the tripartite general budget law should be submitted to the House of Representatives.

The Council of Ministers was scheduled to vote, in last Tuesday’s session, on the budget schedules for the year 2024, and send them to Parliament, according to what was announced by the Chairman of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Atwan Al-Atwani, but the Council did not include that on its agenda.

The statement from the office of Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani during last week's session did not include any details about the 2024 budget schedules.

Acting Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mohsen Al-Mandalawi, agreed last Tuesday, with the Prime Minister, Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani, on the necessity of completing the schedules of the budget law for the year 2024, and expediting sending them to the House of Representatives for the purpose of discussing and voting on them.
