 MP CALLS FOR ENACTING OIL AND GAS LAW TO SOLVE SALARY CRISIS

Member of the Parliamentary Oil, Gas and Wealth Committee Nazim Al-Shabli called on the federal government today, Tuesday, to expedite sending the draft oil and gas law.  

Al-Shabli told / Al-Maalouma / agency, “The legislation of the oil and gas law is sufficient to solve the crisis of salaries of the region’s employees, indicating that the law contributes greatly to stopping oil smuggling as well as addressing the salary crisis.”

He added that “the salary crisis is ongoing until now and there is hope and a beginning to solve it after the legislation of the oil and gas law within the Council of Representatives,” noting that “the region continues to smuggle oil.”

He stressed “the need to expedite sending the oil and gas law to solve the giant problems between Baghdad and Erbil.”

(All I can say to this article is “I Told You So”. I have explained this many times. The lack of this law slows down and stalls many efforts. The Oil and Gas Law or lack thereof, is at the root of much of the turmoil within Iraq Kurds vs Baghdad.)
