Committee member MP Othman Al-Shaibani said in a statement to Shafaq News Agency that the age for optional retirement will be from 40 to 42 years, provided that the actual service is not less than 15 years.
Al-Shaibani added that the Retirement Authority objected to the Ministry of Interior employees going into voluntary retirement due to the lack of financial allocations, explaining that the committee intervened to resolve the issue, and that the first reading of the draft law will be during the current legislative session.
He indicated that the Parliamentary Security and Defense Committee will host all the first-line leaders of the various security agencies, including the Interior Minister of the Kurdistan Region, to assess the readiness of the Iraqi armed forces and security agencies, especially after September 30 and the withdrawal of US forces from Iraq.
Al-Shaibani pointed out that the committee is directly monitoring the application and admission process at the Higher Institute, the Police College, and the Commissioners Institute affiliated with the Ministry of Interior, to ensure that admission procedures proceed according to clear and transparent standards, and away from exceptions and favoritism.
