Yesterday the Iraqi Parliament did the first hearing for the budget law draft, and it is expected that the second and third hearing will be made in the next few days.

Since the Kurdish blocs and the Al-Muttahidun bloc refused to attend former parliament sessions, the hearing and passing of the revenue law draft was delayed up to this time. But, yesterday the parliament attendees reached the required number and the first hearing was conducted.

The session was made after National Coalition, Saddr, Mawatn, Higher Islamic Council of Iraq factions attended the meeting, thus reaching the sufficient number of attendees.
