CandyKisses: Ministry of Finance Criticized for Delay in Issuing Budget Instructions
Baghdad – NAS

Economist Nabil al-Tamimi said the delay in issuing instructions for this year’s budget indicates a government failure represented by the Ministry of Finance.
Al-Tamimi criticized the delay in issuing these instructions, although they do not need major updates and changes, expressing surprise that the Ministry of Finance did not benefit from the time during the period of preparation and discussion of the budget by the House of Representatives.
Finance Minister Taif Sami had previously reported that the ministry has intensified its efforts to expedite the issuance of procedures for reviewing the instructions for implementing the federal general budget for the years 2023, 2024 and 2025 No. 13 of 2023, which was recently approved by the House of Representatives.
