The Kurdistan National Union parliamentary bloc called on the federal government, on Tuesday, to expedite and send the oil and gas law to the House of Representatives for study and approval as quickly as possible.
The bloc’s spokesperson, Susan Mansour, said in a statement to Al-Maalouma Agency, “The enforcement of the oil and gas law is sufficient to eliminate the problems between Baghdad and Erbil,” noting that “the law was very late in being included in the central government.”
She added, “The enactment of the law requires political understandings between the governments of Baghdad and Erbil to resolve the outstanding problems between the two parties.”
Mansour pointed out that “there are parliamentary demands for the government to send a draft oil and gas law to the House of Representatives for study and approval in accordance with what is stipulated in the State Administration Coalition Agreement.”
