Shafaq News/ Iraq's parliament will inaugurate the second legislative term of its second year next Monday, with laws on election, pensions, and oil resources on the assembly's agenda, a member of the State of Law bloc said on Wednesday.

"The second term of the second legislative year will begin on Monday, January 9th," Lawmaker Aref al-Hamami told Shafaq News Agency.

The new term, according to al-Hamami, will look into amendments to laws on election, unified pensions, oil and gas, and a variety of other important laws.
