dijlahpoint - Member of Parliament Hiam Al-Yasiri submitted an official request to the Parliament Presidency on Monday to address the Council of Ministers regarding the recent directive issued to government institutions, which prevents MPs from directly requesting information and documents. Al-Yasiri demanded the cancellation of the fourth paragraph of the government circular, considering it a clear restriction on the Parliament's oversight role and a direct violation of the constitution and internal regulations. She also called for summoning the Secretary-General of the Council of Ministers for questioning, stressing the need to amend laws to ensure MPs can exercise their oversight role freely, away from any interpretations by the executive authority.
