Tishwash: Iraq opens the file on public funds: striking at privileges and removing zeros
Amid the financial and economic pressures facing the Iraqi state, the files of public funds, privileges, double salaries, and reforming the monetary system are returning to the forefront of discussion within the House of Representatives, with a set of proposals aimed at rearranging government spending, tightening control over the wealth of officials, and strengthening the position of the Iraqi dinar.
The proposals put forward do not stop at amending one law, but open a wider discussion about the form of the state’s financial management, the size of spending on officials, and the extent to which regulatory institutions are able to uncover illicit funds, leading up to a controversial proposal related to removing zeros from the Iraqi currency.
