Shafaq News / Kurdistan’s Ministry of Finance and Economy announced, on Tuesday, that Minister Awat Sheikh Janab signed the budget law.
A brief statement of the Ministry said, "After eight years 2013-2021, Awat Sheikh Janab, Minister of Finance and Economy, signed the Region’s general budget law and sent it to the Council of Ministers."
The statement did not give further details, but it is supposed to be discussed by the KRG then to be transferred to the Kurdish Parliament for voting.
