As the current Iraqi government is a caretaker government, it cannot send law proposals to the parliament. However, the food security crisis due to the Russian war in Ukraine has led the Iraqi government to propose a food security law.
The parliamentary Finance Committee announced on May 14 that the money allocated under the food security bill had increased to 27 trillion Iraqi dinars. Yet this bill was aborted by the Federal Court on May 15, because it contradicts the constitution, which embarrassed the cabinet, according to the finance minister.
