 Erbil
[size=45]The Federal Court issues a decision regarding the constitutionality of the Electoral and Referendum Commission in the Kurdistan region, and opinions differed quickly in understanding the decision.[/size]
[size=45]The Erbil Commission says that the ruling did not nullify its constitutionality, and promised it positive, stressing that the court’s objection referred to the phrase “exclusive authority” contained in the text of the Regional Commission Law, because the Federal Commission in Baghdad also has the right to organize elections within Kurdistan, including the election of the House of Representatives.[/size]
[size=45]“Legally, federal decisions are binding on everyone and cannot be appealed,” Shursh Hassan, director of relations at the Kurdistan Election Commission, told UTV. We see that there is a positive aspect in the decision in terms of the work of the Kurdistan Commission, because there is a constitutional endorsement of this commission, and the commission is formed under Law No. 4 of 2014, within the constitutional contexts that give the region the right to have institutions.[/size]
[size=45]Law experts went to the opinion of the Kurdistan Elections Commission, stressing that the Federal Court rejected the lawsuit related to the unconstitutionality of the Commission, but confirmed that the commissions of the Center and Erbil have the right to work within the region, and this explains the objection to the phrase “exclusive authority” contained in the text of the Commission law.

[size=45]Sattar Ramadan, a legal expert, told UTV that “the Federal Court’s decision to reject the lawsuit and the plaintiffs’ requests in the two lawsuits regarding the unconstitutionality of the law of the Region’s Elections Commission, and therefore this law is correct and enforceable, except for the three-word phrase, which is to be the exclusive authority.”[/size]
[size=45]Despite this interpretation, which favors the region, Kurdish politicians believe that the opponents are trying to use judicial decisions in political disputes.[/size]
[size=45]"This is just political pressure, especially on the Democratic Party because it does not accept political dictates," Imad Baglan, a Kurdish politician, told UTV.[/size]
[size=45]The case, which was decided by the Federal Court, was filed by the opposition Kurdish MP, Sarwa Abdul Wahed and other deputies, to challenge the constitutionality of the Kurdistan Elections Commission.[/size]
