On it for the draft budget with detailed tables in advance of a sufficient period of time for all members of the House of Representatives to be viewed and to ensure that some paragraphs are not tampered with before the voting session.

 

He added that his bloc “calls for the return of the dollar exchange rate to its previous price to pay damage to the poor and middle-income groups of citizens in light of a stifling health and economic crisis,” considering that “mentioning the price of a barrel of oil in Iraqi dinars is a circumvention of the public’s demands to restore the exchange rate to 1119 dinars.” For one dollar. ”

He also called for “canceling foreign loans because they are not needed after the improvement in oil prices and because of their harmful future effects on the economic and political levels, especially foreign loans and the sovereign guarantees of the Ministry of Electricity, as the report of the Financial Supervision Bureau stated that these loans are a drain on the state’s public treasury.”

 

And he called for “not to add any material that gives ISIS terrorist members the status of martyrs under names intended to delude the public through wordplay to find a reason in which the victim is equal with the executioner and the murderer with the martyr.”
