Parliamentary Finance denies canceling deductions from salaries of employees




Economy News _ Baghdad

The parliamentary finance committee denied on Wednesday the cancellation of deductions from salaries of employees, stressing that it will work to cancel the budget next year.

"There is a misinterpretation of the recent statement by the Federal Court on the deductions from the employees' salaries amounting to 3.8 percent," said member of the committee MP Hossam al-Aqabi during a statement obtained by "Economy News". He understood the court's view of canceling deductions as unconstitutional.

He added that "the Federal Court explained that the statement has interpreted the subject wrongly after the overlap between the articles of the federal budget," pointing out that the Finance Committee will work to cancel deductions in the budget of 2018.

He pointed out that "the price of oil began to improve over the past three months where the price of a barrel of oil $ 50, and when the price remains at this level will be able to budget to cover the salaries of employees and retirees and victims of terrorism, as well as to cover the expenses of ministries and licensing tours."

The Federal Court issued a statement earlier in which it stressed the need to cancel deductions from salaries of employees because they are unconstitutional.
