Parliamentary Accountability for the Government Regarding the Impact of its Economic Policies on the Public Sector and Low-Income Earners

MP Saud Al-Saadi issued a set of official parliamentary inquiries on Saturday to the Prime Minister, addressing the government's current economic trends and their potential impacts on vulnerable groups and the public sector. Through an official document, Al-Saadi demanded clarification of the constitutional foundations underpinning government statements advocating a shift toward privatization and reducing state intervention in the economy. The questioning included inquiries about the alignment of these policies with the principles of social justice and the protection of low-income earners guaranteed by the constitution. It also requested explicit clarifications regarding the future of vital sectors and the mechanisms for managing national wealth, primarily the oil and gas sectors. The MP stressed that any economic reform efforts must adhere to constitutional frameworks to safeguard citizens' rights, demanding an official response within the specified legal timeframes.
