10/18/2024 Baghdad
The Ministry of Planning confirmed, on Thursday, that the percentage of completion of the population census work exceeded 90 percent, and that it was completed in most governorates, while it announced a decrease in the need for schools and stability in the annual inflation indicators.
The official spokesman for the ministry, Abdul Zahra Al-Hindawi, said in a statement reported by the official news agency, and seen by "Al-Eqtisad News", that "the percentage of completion of operations related to the population census has achieved great progress," explaining that "work began in the field since the first of September for a period of two months, but rapid progress may lead to the completion of operations before the specified date."
He pointed out that "the work will be completed before the end of this month, with the exception of the three governorates of the Kurdistan Region (Erbil, Sulaymaniyah, Dohuk), in which work was delayed for technical reasons," noting that "the completion rate has reached more than 90 percent."
Regarding the country’s need for schools, Al-Hindawi said, “Previous estimates indicated a need for about 6,000 schools, but the implementation of many projects within the framework of the Chinese agreement and other activities significantly reduced the need,” indicating that “the ministry is awaiting the results of the general population census to provide an accurate figure on the number of current schools.” LINK
