The High Council of State rejects what was approved in the House of Representatives session regarding the state’s general budget law

Pulbished on:

Tripoli, July 11, 2024 (LANA) - The High Council of State confirmed its complete rejection of what was approved in the session of the House of Representatives held on Tuesday and Wednesday, corresponding to (09 and 10) July 2024, regarding the state’s general budget law with an “unprecedented financial sum,” approximately one hundred and seventy-nine billion L.D.

The head of the High Council of State, “Mohamed Takala,” said in a letter addressed to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, today, Thursday, and published on the page of the Council’s Media Office, in view of the serious and multiple violations that the members of the House of Representatives themselves expressed through the various media outlets in that session, and in their entirety, there are shortcomings. The work issued by the House of Representatives in that session has declined to the point of nonexistence. All of this is in addition to the lack of commitment to refer the draft budget law to the Supreme Council of State, to express a binding opinion on it, in accordance with what is specified in the texts of the Libyan Political Agreement in Skhirat.

He added that the High Council of State “warns that the House of Representatives’ persistence in its transgressions and taking measures and arrangements to manage public affairs unilaterally will only lead to further division and waste of public resources and capabilities,” warning of the seriousness of this matter and its repercussions, and holding those responsible for it and those participating in it responsible for its negative effects on society and the future of the country.

“Takala” stressed the State Council’s complete rejection of what was approved in the aforementioned session of the House of Representatives, and its lack of regard for the decisions that resulted from it, and it considers them to have no legal effect, because they do not meet the rules for approving the budget law, in accordance with the legislation in force, and he adheres to this position on the basis of its consistency with the correct law, it calls on every interested party to challenge the laws issued by the House of Representatives in violation before the competent judiciary.
