Mayahi: Parliament becomes means to hinder government performance

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) MP, Aziz al-Mayahi, of the White bloc stated that the parliament became a means to hinder the performance of the government and endorsing the important law drafts.

In a press statement received by IraqiNews.com on Friday, he said “”The delay in endorsing the laws by the political blocs and increase of their demands regarding the general budget became a habit while endorsing the important law drafts that are useful for the citizens where the parliament became a means to serve the political blocs rather than serving the citizens.”

“The citizens know the importance of expediting endorsing the law drafts to ensure the continuity of the performance of the government where there are dozens of the families wait for releasing the job opportunities and the other grants that became under the mercy of the political blocs,” he added.

He criticized “The excuses that delay the endorsement of the general budget for the second time in the current week,” calling the political blocs to “Adhere to the national interest and neglect the personal one to achieve the interest of the people.”
