Informed sources reported on Friday that political consensus has been reached regarding the ministerial portfolio for the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs in the new government cabinet led by Ali Al-Zaidi. In exclusive statements, the sources indicated that recent understandings among political forces have resulted in allocating the Ministry of Labor to Basra province. The sources added that an agreement has been made to nominate a youth figure, not prominent in the media, to assume this vital role. This development follows the House of Representatives granting confidence to a portion of the ministerial cabinet on Thursday, while voting on several other portfolios was postponed to finalize political agreements concerning them.
