Iraqi parliament extends its legislative term to the ninth of next month
Shafaq News / The presidency of the Iraqi Council of Representatives decided on Thursday to extend the legislative term for 30 days starting from 9/11 of this month.
This comes after Mohammed Al-Khafaji, a member of the Parliamentary Legal Committee, revealed to Shafaq News that the current legislative term of the House of Representatives ends on the 9th of this month, and that its extension for another month is subject to Article 58 of the Iraqi Constitution.
He added that according to this article, the legislative term can be extended at the request of the President of the Republic, the Prime Minister, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, or 50 deputies, provided that the extension is approved by the vote of the majority of the members of the Council.
Al-Khafaji explained that the extension comes to regulate the work of parliament and approve the pending laws, as the past period witnessed repeated postponements in the sessions of the Council and the incompleteness of the agenda.
He pointed out that the extension will provide an additional opportunity for the government to send the draft budget law for 2025, which is supposed to be sent before the end of this year. He stressed the importance of the government taking advantage of this time to avoid the delay in the budget this year.
