Member of the Parliamentary Oil and Gas Committee, Independent Representative Nazem Al-Shibli, stressed today, Wednesday, the necessity of passing the oil and gas law. Al-Shibli told Al-Maalouma,
“The oil and gas law is the only solution to solve the outstanding problems between the federal government and the Kurdistan region, and
its legislation will resolve all disputes between the two parties.” He added,
"The House of Representatives has completed all sections of the law,
but the government has amendments and comments on some paragraphs of the prepared law." He pointed out
“the difficulty of resolving the problems with the region without the oil and gas law,” noting that
“11 amendments were made to the law.”
Since the first session of the Iraqi Council of Representatives, in 2005, the draft oil and gas law has remained locked away, as disagreements prevent its approval in its final form.
After 18 years, he announced the formation of a committee to develop “a draft of the oil and gas law and present it to the government and the House of Representatives, according to what MP Firas Al-Muslimaoui revealed. The representative stressed that
“there is a real will in the House of Representatives to legislate the law.
Iraq exports an average of 3.3 million barrels of crude oil per day, and
black gold constitutes more than 90 percent of the Iraqi treasury’s resources.” End25
