Yesterday , Saturday, a member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Mustafa Al-Karaawi, indicated a delay in funding employee salaries, but he said that those salaries are secured as a balance with the government .
Al-Karaawi added, “There is a delay in financing employee salaries due to the scarcity of financial cash, and this matter is clear because most ministries and state departments suffer from a delay in financing and disbursing the salaries of their employees .”
He explained, “Some ministries and departments used to pay their employees’ salaries on the 16th-18th of the month, but now they are delayed until the 26th. These ten days of delay are due to a problem in providing financial cash .”
Al-Karaawi pointed out that “employees’ salaries are generally secured as a balance in the government, but their financing date will be delayed due to a shortage of financial cash .”
The member of the Finance Committee continued to say, “According to the last meeting with the Minister of Finance, Taif Sami, she confirmed that the employees’ salaries are insured for the month of August .”
Employees in Iraq have complained in recent months that their salaries were delayed until the end of the month, while they were received from the 16th to the 26th of each month .
The Iraqi government and the Finance Committee in the House of Representatives always confirm that the salaries of employees and retirees are insured even if oil prices fall below $70 per barrel.
