Baghdad: Shaima Rasheed
The second legislative term of the Parliament begins, and in the drawers of the committees there are many draft laws that await their turn in discussion and approval, as the deputies expect continuous working hours to compensate for the long time spent on the current year's budget discussions.
A member of the Legal Committee, Raed al-Maliki, said in an interview with "Al-Sabah" that the committee has "many laws, especially the laws that were read for the first and second time," pointing out that the committee "awaits the draft laws presented by the government after forming a committee to determine the priority in presenting draft laws, and we are waiting for what will come from them."
Al-Maliki added, "There are laws such as information crimes and freedom of expression that will be presented to parliament, as well as a general amnesty, as there are demands to quickly legislate it," noting that "the next stage includes amending the laws of the Electoral Commission and combating prostitution and including criminalizing acts of homosexuality, specifically homosexuality."
He denied, "Parliament has stopped working after enacting the budget for three years, because the budget law regulates revenues and expenditures," adding that "there are late closing accounts for previous governments that were submitted for the years 2012-2014."
As for the Parliamentary Transportation and Communications Committee, it confirmed the priority of the suspended communications law from previous sessions. Committee member Haitham Al-Zahwan explained to Al-Sabah that "the law helps in collecting money, withdrawing money, and transferring it between the user and the investor," adding that "the communication service is not at the required level for that, and with the start of the legislative term, a meeting will be held in the committee in order to address all companies to find out the poor service and hold them accountable in the event that these problems are not resolved." For its part, the Labor Committee and civil society organizations called on Parliament to pass strict laws against child labor, as the issue is against the principles of the state, which aspires to be with building society and providing a decent life.
Committee member Jassim Al-Alawi told Al-Sabah that "Iraq aspires to be a country that deals with laws that respect people and age groups, so we look forward to a strict law that combats child labor and those who exploit children in any profession will be held accountable for it, and we must not allow this phenomenon to be in society."
Al-Alawi pointed out that "Iraq is looking forward to improving its economic situation, as well as for its social systems to be at the level required to reduce such phenomena in a way that guarantees the right of labor, children and women."
