Iraq Parliament to vote on Halabja Province, PMF laws

Shafaq News/ On Wednesday, Iraq’s parliament is set to address several laws, including the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) Service and Retirement Law.

Tonight's session agenda featured seven items, such as the vote on the draft Halabja Province Law and the second reading of the PMF Law.

In its last session, the parliament completed the first reading of the PMF Authority Law, which addresses the administrative structure, including directorates and brigades, after the PMF Service and Retirement Law was withdrawn and returned to the Cabinet due to surrounding controversy.

Earlier today, the Halabja Chamber of Commerce and Industry called on Iraq’s trade chambers to back its efforts in securing legal recognition for Halabja as Iraq’s 19th province.
