    Voices and calls rose to reconsider the salaries of members of the House of Representatives and reduce parliamentary expenses. 
    According to statistics, each representative costs the Iraqi state one billion and 800 million dinars annually, 150 million Iraqi dinars monthly, and 5 million Iraqi dinars daily.
    The calls are increasing day after day from observers and those interested in political affairs, for the necessity of an effective parliamentary role for members of the House of Representatives, through approving laws that primarily serve the citizen.

    Political analyst Qasim Balshan stressed the necessity of drafting a new law that reduces the salaries and benefits of members of the House of Representatives during the parliamentary session.
    Balshan told Al-Maalouma, “The parliamentary role is not at the required level, and is not in line with the high figures for council members’ salaries.”
    He added, "The role of the members of the House of Representatives does not meet the ambition and aspirations of the citizen in terms of presenting laws that primarily affect the interest of the Iraqi people, as well as laws related to the country's security."
    He considered it necessary to "draft a new law for the House of Representatives that does not give Parliament the right to obtain retirement and benefits after the end of the parliamentary term," noting that "most parliamentarians are employees, and after the end of their parliamentary term they must return to their previous job."

    He explained, “If this law is enacted, it will “prevent the burden on the country’s budget.”
    In addition, the former representative, Mishaan Al-Jubouri, spoke about the huge sums that a member of the House of Representatives receives per month.
    Al-Jubouri said in a televised interview followed by Al-Maalouma, “The member of parliament receives a salary of up to 45 million dinars per month, which is equivalent to about 37 thousand dollars, compared to about 200 dollars received by the youngest employee in Iraq.”
    In a related context... The Parliamentary Legal Committee confirmed that reducing or changing the salaries of officials must be subject to procedures and amendments in the laws that stipulate these salaries.
    Committee member Ahmed Fawaz Al-Watifi told Al-Maalouma, “The government does not have the authority to reduce the salaries of officials, without legal amendments.”

    He added, "The Legal Committee did not receive any proposal from the government related to reducing the salaries of special grades," noting, "Parliament is waiting for the government to send proposals related to reducing the salaries of general directors, agents, ministers, and holders of special grades."
    He pointed out that "the reduction is in the interest of the investment budget and other budget sections because most of the budget goes to salaries," pointing out, "The Sudanese government's ministerial platform included a number of economic reforms, including reducing salaries and allocations for special grades in exchange for improving the living situation of the lower grades of employees."
