 Economic expert Nabil Al-Marsoumi revealed, today, Saturday (August 24, 2024), what he called hidden hands that tampered with and changed the numbers of the budget tables in its paper and electronic versions.

Al-Marsoumi said in a post on the Facebook platform, followed by Baghdad Today, that "the Presidency of the Republic has not approved the 2024 budget tables and they have not yet been published in the Iraqi Gazette, despite the parliament voting on them about two months ago," indicating that "the reason for this is the hidden hand that tampered with and changed the numbers of the tables in the paper and electronic versions and added 15 trillion dinars to them."

He added, "After the two letters sent by the Prime Minister's Office to the House of Representatives to investigate this issue, and after the complaint submitted by MP Basem Khashan to the Federal Court, it seems that there is an exciting tragic chapter that we will witness in the coming days."

Acting Speaker of Parliament Mohsen Al-Mandalawi confirmed on Wednesday (August 21, 2024) that the budget tables voted on by the Council are the same as those sent by the Council of Ministers.

According to documents issued by the director of Al-Mandlawi’s office, received by “Baghdad Today”, “the budget tables voted on by the House of Representatives are the same ones sent by the Council of Ministers and returned to it, according to Parliamentary Resolution No. 64, without any amendment, and the aforementioned tables are the same ones that were sent after approval to the government.”

It is worth noting that the member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Moeen Al-Kazemi, revealed on Wednesday (June 26, 2024), that an appeal was filed by a member of the Legal Committee in Parliament, against the approval of the 2024 budget schedules.

Al-Kadhimi told Baghdad Today that the appeal was submitted "on the grounds that the numbers included in the budget items will change, and thus this is considered a change to the law and requires the enactment of a new law with a first and second reading, and final approval."

He pointed out that "another objection is to changing the financing of oil producing companies from self-financing to central financing, and this matter is considered another piece of legislation that cannot be included in the budget tables."

Al-Kadhimi pointed out that "the Federal Supreme Court referred this lawsuit to the Presidency of the Council of Representatives and requested an answer within 15 days."
