The Sadrist Bloc lists the benefits of holding Saturday's parliamentary session.

Shafaq News/ The head of the Sadrist Parliamentary Bloc, Hassan Al-Adhari, affirmed that nine issues would be “the fruit” of holding Saturday's parliamentary session.

Al-Adhari said the Iraqi government would be formed, and the 2022 budget would be approved.

He added that the session would "expedite approving service and infrastructure projects and other government-submitted projects and laws to the House of Representatives.”

The session would witness an activation of the monitoring role of Parliament over the government and the members of Parliament exercising their parliamentary role through the formation of committees and parliament sessions.

On Wednesday, the Parliamentary alliance "Saving the Homeland," which is consisted of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, the Sadrist bloc, and Al-Siyada Alliance, announced their nominees officially for the Iraqi Presidency and the Prime minister.

In a press conference, al-Adhari, said, "our candidate for Presidency is Rebar Ahmed (the Current Minister of Interior in Kurdistan), and for the position of Prime Minister is Muhammad Jaafar Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr (the current Iraqi Ambassador to London)."

Muqtada al-Sadr, considered announcing the candidates of the highest positions in Iraq by the tripartite Alliance as "a unique and important achievement."

The Head of the State of Law Coalition, Nuri al-Maliki, challenged the tripartite Alliance to collect the necessary number of deputies in the next election session scheduled for electing the Iraqi President.

"The other party (the tripartite alliance) can't collect 220 deputies in the presidential election session," Al-Maliki said in an interview.

According to Article 70 of the Iraqi Constitution, the President of the Republic should attain a two-thirds majority of the total number of deputies, which is also the needed quorum to open the session for election.
