On Saturday (May 30, 2026), Prime Minister Ali Falih Al-Zaidi directed the formation of the "Supreme Sovereign Council for Integrity, Oversight, and Public Fund Recovery." This directive was issued during a comprehensive meeting focused on reviewing government contract auditing procedures, attended by top officials from the Federal Board of Supreme Audit, the Federal Integrity Commission, and the Public Prosecution. The newly established council, chaired by Al-Zaidi, aims to monitor critical financial and economic oversight files across state institutions to curb financial waste and refer findings to the judiciary. The Prime Minister also emphasized the necessity of verifying the economic feasibility of projects and establishing a specialized central committee to audit government contracts prior to execution, ensuring their compliance with prevailing laws and financial allocations.
