Shafaq News/ The new governor of Dhi Qar, Ahmed al-Khafaji, curtailed a land titling decree issued by the former administration.

An official statement of al-Khafaji's office said that the governorate's departments are set back to work regularly.

The statement added that the governorate's administration decided to halt the execution of decree 25 that stipulates land titling.

Al-Khafaji blasted the entire local governorate in a sweeping reform in the governorate's administration.

The new governor of Dhi Qar said in a brief press release earlier today that the decree to dismiss the cabinet also includes the former administration staff.

The new governor said that he will soon disclose the new cabinet's formation, which he described as "technocratic and fresh blooded".
