Here we go! https://x.com/thenewregion/status/1886022054291423623 JUST IN: In the presence of 176 lawmakers, the Iraqi parliament began a session that includes voting on proposed amendments to the federal budget law - announcement |
![](https://images.advfn.com/static/default-user.png) Member of Parliament Kazem Al-Fayyadh confirmed today, Sunday (February 2, 2025), that there are no parliamentary guarantees for passing the amendment to the budget law sent by the Iraqi government.
Al-Fayadh told Baghdad Today, "After about an hour and a half from the time of the parliament session, and until now there are no real parliamentary guarantees for passing the amendment to the budget law, due to the existence of many objections and comments on the amendment by many representatives from different political orientations."
He added, "Because of these disagreements over the text sent by the Iraqi government, we believe that the parliament session will be delayed and will not be held on time. The matter still requires some understanding between the members of the parliamentary finance committee, as well as the blocs and representatives who object to the amendment."
Earlier today, Parliament Speaker Mahmoud Al-Mashhadani confirmed that "after extensive discussions, we in the Presidency of the Parliament agreed with the heads of the parliamentary blocs and committees to pass the text sent by the government regarding amending the general budget law, for convincing technical and legal reasons."
He added, "The draft amendment law was placed first on the agenda of today's session, Sunday, which will be chaired by First Deputy Prime Minister Mohsen Al-Mandalawi, due to our travel outside Iraq."
The Parliamentary Finance Committee confirmed that the amendments made to the draft budget law came in accordance with what was approved by the Council of Ministers. |

Yea sorry Gaz didn’t see that. 😏 |
The internet says that 138 out of 275 are required for a quorum. I wonder how many of those staying away just aren't interested vs. not wanting this vote to pass? |

Speaker: The amendment to the budget law will be approved |
It has nothing to do with legitimacy. Its purely political and always has been . The Iranians are terrified of an independent Kurdistan and its US military bases. |
It's not a legitimate industry without a legitimate payment mechanism written in the Iraq budget law..Contract legitimacy always a given and has been tested for years..Lets see how it goes |
