The parliamentary delegation announces the convening of a meeting of the three presidencies and resolving the budget disputes

The parliamentary legal committee revealed on Thursday the intention to hold a meeting of the three presidencies in order to resolve differences on the budget, indicating that it is not possible to vote on the budget after the second reading before the passage of four days.

“The Presidency of Parliament and the Legal Committee are working with the Finance Committee to contain all the differences in accordance with the frameworks of the law on the budget to pass,” said member of the Committee Salim Shawqi.

He added that “there are movements to hold a meeting of the three presidencies on the budget and resolve outstanding differences on them and pass them as soon as possible.”
He explained that “according to the rules of procedure can not pass the budget after the second reading only after four days with the lowest estimates,” explaining that “attention is directed towards the meetings of the three presidencies to reduce the size of differences.”

The House of Representatives has completed, last Tuesday, the second reading of the draft budget of the country, while differences are still going on some of its paragraphs.
