[size=45]Yesterday, Saturday, Parliament began its sessions in its third term by ignoring the most prominent crisis facing the Iraqi street, which is the rise in the exchange rate of the dollar and its impact on the local market.[/size]
[size=45]Representative Amer Abdel-Jabbar said, "82 deputies signed a request that the rise in the price of the dollar be discussed in the first parliament session."[/size]
[size=45]Abdul-Jabbar continued, "The agenda for yesterday was devoid of this paragraph, although the changes in the price of the dollar greatly affected the citizen, with a clear price hike in the markets."[/size]
[size=45]He pointed out, "The citizen does not bear the burden of the government's mistakes, which must provide radical solutions," noting that "Parliament is with dealing with money laundering operations and pursuing the corrupt, but this is not done at the expense of the citizen."[/size]
[size=45]Abdul-Jabbar pointed out that “the issue of the dollar falls directly on the central bank and the executive authority. As for the role of parliament, it is a supervisory one represented by hosting the governor of the central bank, Mustafa Ghaleb Makhaif, and if necessary, hosting the Prime Minister, Muhammad Shia’ al-Sudani.”[/size]
[size=45]And he stated, “If the government does not put in place radical solutions, then we will go to use our powers in interrogation, because we do not accept that the citizen bears the price.”[/size]
[size=45]For his part, the other deputy, Sharif Suleiman, stated that "Parliament must put in its first concern the issue of changing the exchange rate of the dollar and its impact on the Iraqi street."[/size]
[size=45]Suleiman continued, "The representatives will not stand by and watch the rise in the exchange rate," stressing that "the role of the House of Representatives oversight over the rest of the authorities helps it to remedy the crisis."[/size]
[size=45]Parliament finished its first session of the new legislative term, reading a report and discussing the Fourth Amendment Law to the Industrial Investment Law for the private and public sectors No. (20) of 1988 and the first reading of the draft Communications and Informatics Law. The session also witnessed, according to an official statement of the parliament, the oath of three new deputies, Ghazwan Ali Muhammad Munshed and Kazem. Attia Kazem and a leftist student.[/size]
