Ms. Uala Talabani, head of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan bloc in the House of Representatives, sent an urgent message to the federal presidencies of the state in Baghdad, the Iraqi parliament, and the presidencies of the Kurdistan Region and its Parliament, appealing to them to work in order to bypass the bureaucratic formulas in the implementation of the provisions of the 2021 budget, and the need to end the deductions imposed on The salaries of the region’s employees and any other deductions imposed due to the previous problem between Baghdad and Erbil ... and the text of the message stated:
Citizens in the Kurdistan Region, like the rest of the Iraqis, were encouraged that the legislation of the Federal Budget Law would lead to the implementation of its provisions in a way that would reduce the burdens facing Iraqis in general, and citizens in the Kurdistan Region in particular, and specifically employees.
But what happened is that the region’s employees still deduct 21 percent of their salaries, which are deductions that are no longer justified in light of the federal authorities ’commitment to pay the region’s employees’ salaries, as part of their greater commitment to pay the region’s dues from the general budget, which we all voted on in The Iraqi Council of Representatives,
The continued deduction of this percentage from the region’s employees’s salaries comes in an unjustified state, as the Iraqi national consensus has resulted in the issue of the region’s share of the budget being accepted by all parties, thanks to the special perseverance and patience of the region’s deputy prime minister, Mr. Qubad Talabani, and his special standing with the rest Iraqi officials.
On the other hand, the statements of Mr. Asim Jihad, spokesman for the Federal Ministry of Oil, indicated that the region’s authorities have not yet delivered any quantities of oil or oil revenues according to what was included in the general budget, which is something that Dr. Gutiar Adel, the spokesperson for the region, could not answer objectively. Regrettably, he only said, "He will respond to the statement of the spokesman of the Federal Oil Ministry as soon as possible regarding the export of oil and the federal government's share of it."
Firstly, this means that the region’s authorities do not have a specific answer regarding the problem of organizing oil exports in accordance with what guarantees justice and rights for the citizens of Kurdistan’s share of Iraqi oil, and the rights of the federal state and the rest of the Iraqis in the region’s oil.
It also means that the authorities in Erbil suffer from an office bureaucracy that is harmful to the supposed fraternal relations with the federal authorities in Baghdad and the rest of the Iraqi citizens. Meet their basic needs,
A vital issue related to financial resources, especially oil revenues, which is the main source of employee salaries and social care, and peshmerga dues as they fight and confront terrorism daily, which calls for a quick practical step-by-step of the formulas of repulsive bureaucratic correspondence,
The authorities of the region in Erbil, especially the ministries of oil and finance, are required to provide quick answers to the reasons for the continued deduction of the salaries of employees in the region, as well as not to pay the prescribed amount of oil exports to the accounts of the Federal Ministry of Oil, and to resolve these forms away from slow and harmful correspondence.
The Iraqi people, certainly including the region’s employees and the rest of the citizens, are tired of maneuvering and bureaucracy, and they want to enhance the spirit of trust, cooperation and fraternal solidarity, in order to achieve the region’s employees and social benefits receiving their full dues, by overcoming all office obstacles and the need to commit to providing the region’s share of export. Oil to the federal authorities ...
We in the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan bloc in the Iraqi parliament believe in the need for parliament to complete its oversight role, after it fulfilled its legislative role in approving the general budget, by urging all concerned parties to implement the budget provisions in a way that relieves all citizens, including the masses of the Iraqi people. Kurdistan Region ...
In the same context, we find one of the tasks of the Kurdistan Regional Parliament to follow up and question the region’s authorities about deductions from employees' entitlements and the rest of the citizens, and to demand the implementation of the provisions of the Budget Law to remove everything that would disturb the positive relations between the federal government and the region’s authorities.
This is part of the guarantees of the process of building Iraq's prosperous civil, democratic, federal state to provide security, stability and a decent life for all citizens.
