Disagreements paralyze the Iraqi parliament in Ramadan...the boycott continues
Independent Iraqi parliament member Jawad al-Yasari said on Tuesday that the parliament session will not be held due to the continued boycott of the sessions by most of the representatives, in protest against the failure to include the service and retirement law for the Popular Mobilization Authority on the agenda .
Al-Yasari told Shafaq News Agency, "The indicators confirm that the parliament session for today, Tuesday, will not be held, as happened in previous sessions, due to the continued boycott of most of the representatives, especially from the Coordination Framework blocs, of the sessions in protest against the failure to put the service and retirement law of the Popular Mobilization Authority to a vote."
He added, "Holding a parliament session during the month of Ramadan seems difficult in light of the ongoing political disputes and conflicts, which means that the sessions will remain suspended until after the Eid al-Fitr holiday, until an agreement is reached between the political parties on passing the law."
The Iraqi Parliament is expected to hold its regular session today, with the agenda including several topics, including voting on the draft law amending the fourth amendment to the Industrial Investment Law for the Private and Mixe d Sectors No. 20 of 1998, in addition to voting on a decision to recommend to the Ministry of Education to reinstate the trial system .
The Council is also scheduled to discuss the report of the interim parliamentary committee to follow up on the preservation of state property, the first reading of the draft law to cancel the law ratifying the agreement exempting holders of diplomatic and service passports from entry visas between Iraq and Cyprus, and the first reading of the proposed law amending the second law of the Mukhtars Law No. 13 of 2011 .
The agenda also includes a report and discussion of the second reading of the proposed fourth amendment to Law No. 6 of 2000 on the Progression of Medical and Health Professionals .
It is noteworthy that the independent MP, Hussein Al-Saabari, revealed to Shafaq News Agency, last Sunday, that there is a tendency to dissolve the Iraqi Parliament and go to early elections, in the event that its sessions continue to be disrupted .
The House of Representatives is witnessing a continuous disruption of its sessions, due to the lack of a legal quorum to hold them, despite announcing the agenda and setting the date of the session . link
