Iraqi Parliament member Raed al-Maliki held the Council of Ministers accountable for not amending the salary scale for employees and workers in the public sector, reiterating his demand for the federal government to send the Federal Civil Service Council law for the purpose of legislating it.

Al-Maliki said in a joint press conference held with a number of his colleagues and members of the House of Representatives, “There is another legal path related to the salary scale, which is done by amending the Federal Civil Service Law or legislating a new civil service law.”

He explained, “We had in the Iraqi Parliament a draft federal civil service law, which brings together four laws, including the salary scale law,” stressing that “the Council of Ministers withdrew this service law, and it was not returned to Parliament again despite repeated demands from the representatives.
