This came at a time when the Humanitarian Association for retirees expressed support for the draft law, which will serve retirees of the third degree to the sixth, with more than a million and 750 thousand retirees, and workers in the private sector and the number of about 8 million citizens. The creation of jobs and the description of a member of the House of Representatives, Abdul Hadi al-Saadawi, the draft law that it is a very important and very important laws and needs to be activated and legislation within the parliament. Al-Saadawi said in an interview with Al-Sabah that "the advantages of the bill are that it supports the private sector and makes it a competitor to the public sector, especially with the high unemployment rates in the country and the inability of the state to absorb more employees." In the private sector with the guarantee of retirement at the end of the service after deducting the pension entitlements. Saadawi promised the law «a cure for the problems that the country suffers at the present time», stressing «the lack of negatives contained in its provisions». Al-Saadawi pointed out that «he was part of the delegation that met with the World Bank to discuss the law of social insurance subject to the laws of the corresponding countries in the world», noting that «global laws do not include exceptions, but is a general retirement that includes all employees». Al-Saadawi pointed out that «the parliament has the authority to amend any law comes from the government provided that the amendment does not exceed the 50 percent of the articles or paragraphs provided by the government», noting that «discretionary authority belongs to the House of Representatives and the government to amend some paragraphs to comply with the laws Special projects that have been initiated over the past years. " Addressing the economic crisis In the context of the deputy, Harith al-Harthy, that the Social Insurance Act is a temporary law and came as a result of the economic crisis in the country. Al-Harithi said in a press statement that «all the laws enacted in the House of Representatives is a priority for the benefit of the citizen and this law will contribute to the revitalization of the private sector and address the economic crisis in the country through the inclusion of the private sector and the abolition of most of the financial allocations to some segments of society». He added that «the Committee on Economy and Investment parliamentary will form committees to follow up the paragraphs of this law after his arrival to the House of Representatives», noting that «the law has not yet reached the parliament and is still in the Council of Ministers». In turn, MP Muhammad al-Shammari said in a statement: "We have identified some of the negatives that we believe need to be corrected in the draft social insurance bill proposed by the government." He pointed out that "adding new retirees is a positive and important step, but this should not be at the expense of losing Salaries of other segments ». Objections and Negligence Al-Shammari added that «the pension salary entitlement of the employee who pays the pensions, and thus the pension fund funded from the salaries of employees, and it is not fair to pay the salaries of non-employees of the categories covered, which did not pay the arrests of the Fund». Al-Shammari pointed out that «the law abolished in Article (53) the calculation of the certificate for retirees, and reduce the proportion of high-living and defined by five years only after the assignment to retirement, and this will be a state of frustration and lack of motivation to develop the potential of employees through the study of the employee and his access to excellence and creativity They will become invaluable and invaluable to them », he says. He pointed out that «the law contradicted with the philosophy of the state and its reform approach, which had been announced in advance, as Article (35) made the minimum service (25 years) and the age of (50 years) as conditions for those wishing to refer to retirement, thus undermined the chances of new graduates On jobs, and also deprived the private sector of the expertise of public sector employees ». "The law in its articles 66 and 78 speaks about health insurance. We do not know how this insurance will be implemented and how it will benefit the employees in light of a large deficit in hospitals, health centers and the shortage of medicine," Shammari said. Al-Shammari pointed out that «the law in Article (114) says that the insured to receive his rights on the basis of full salary and benefits of employment, and this equation is fixed, which came in Article (40 / II), which we believe is intended to those who wish to calculate the salary and allowances that He pays retroactively and for all his years of service retirements amounting to millions of dinars ». He added that «the law and in Article (40 / III / a) kept the minimum pension (400) thousand dinars, which means not to achieve the basic goal of the law is to raise the level of minimum wage holders». Serving large segments on the other side, the Association of humanitarian retirees supported the draft law, indicating that it will serve about one million and 750 thousand pensioners of the owners of degrees from third to sixth. In an interview with Al-Sabah, the president of the association, Abd al-Rida al-Hafri, promised that "the project, which will be presented to the parliament for approval, which is opposed by specific segments, may be harmed by the developed laws. It will serve many segments of the society and will include all employees in the private sector Including estimated self-employed 8 million according to the estimates of the Ministry of Planning », pointing out that« these will benefit from the law in the event of approval, after payment of the arrest of pensions according to the grades mentioned in the law of salaries of state employees and public sector No. 22 ». "The other beneficiaries are the third, fourth, fifth and sixth grade pensioners who receive salaries ranging from 400 to 600 thousand dinars a month and they barely pay the rents of the houses they inhabit and prepare them up to about 750,000 and a thousand retirees," he said, noting that "those who object to this law They are covered by the law of university service, who receive 80 percent of the nominal salary and 200 percent of the allocations after their retirement, a specific category does not exceed the number of 7,000 citizens, in addition to political prisoners who receive salaries of millions of large and with special grades of deputies and ministers And deputy ministers and general managers ». "The draft law is very sophisticated despite the comments on some of its articles, but in general it is a law that serves large segments of society," he said, calling on the Council of Ministers and the Ministries of Finance, Labor and Social Affairs and the General Retirement Authority to hold explanatory seminars for the law and that its legislation will benefit them. Understanding of some retirees that the law aims to return their salaries to what they were during the economic siege ».
