Economy News - Baghdad
On Monday, the Ministry of Planning and Development Cooperation expected that the poverty rate in the country would rise to 25 percent, while it considered that the adoption of the Food Security and Development Law would address this problem through financial allocations .
Ministry spokesman Abdul-Zahra Al-Hindawi said in a statement to "Shafaq News", that "the ministry will soon start recording a new poverty survey in Iraq and determine the indicators of poverty in light of the current circumstances, whether they are related to Covid 19 or are the product of global food conditions ."
He added that "the last statistic of poverty rates in Iraq in 2019 before the pandemic, recorded approximately 22.5 percent," noting that "after the pandemic, and due to economic and health conditions, the percentage increased, and our expectations that this percentage range from 22 to 25 percent ."
Al-Hindawi pointed out that "the government has taken measures to address the problem of the shortage of some basic materials globally, whether by allocating funds, which is an issue related to food security, which is most affected by prices worldwide, to control the situation and the process of compensating the rise in exchange for providing funds to cover this rise ."
He pointed out that "poverty is affected by such circumstances and negative repercussions, but also, on the other hand, there are measures by the government for the purpose of supporting the poor, either through the ration card, which represents the basis through financial support and securing more than one share in a close time for the citizen, and also by supporting the social protection network through grants salaries on a continuous basis for those covered by the network .
He explained that "the adoption of the Food Security and Development Law, which the Ministry of Planning had a role in drafting this law, will address this problem because it will allocate significant funds for food security and projects as well ."
