Iraq Parl’t Fails to Meet to Vote on New Cabinet
BAGHDAD (Dispatches) – The Iraqi parliament on Thursday failed to meet to vote on a new cabinet proposed by Prime Minister-designate Mohammed Tawfiq Allawi due to a lack of quorum and political disputes.
The parliament media office said in a statement that the Council of Representatives (parliament) postponed its session to give confidence to the new government until Saturday, "because the quorum is not complete.”
