Economic : Fears of raising support entirely on the prices of oil derivatives



After the failure to mention the current budget to support fuel prices
Baghdad-Haider spring
Balancing the effects of the non-inclusion of the current year 2007 allocations to import oil derivatives questions and doubts and objections of many specialists in the economic field, as well as various segments of society
It is an indication that the current year will witness the full support of the oil derivatives, except kerosene (as pointed to the budget that it will support)
The budget showed that the current year would witness will allocate two billion and 400 million dollars that had been allocated last year to support the import and sale of derivatives to citizens at low prices.
A number of economists and specialists that the lifting of subsidy on oil derivatives would lead to a general rise in prices and undermine efforts to limit the effects of inflation, which reached during the first phase to raise fuel prices to more than 70% of MP Nour Eddin Hayali, a member of the Committee of oil and gas in the House of Representatives said the process of lifting the subsidy of oil derivatives in a big problem as it falls not in the interests of citizens, especially the prices of fuel, especially kerosene and gas currently experiencing a big rise in prices, so when lifting support entirely? He says Hayali. Asked summoning oil minister to the meeting of the House of Representatives to stand on that issue, which has serious effects on the lives of people, because it would inevitably lead to a shortage of these derivatives in addition to the resolution lead to a rise in overall prices and stimulate the black market and then Sitzmer citizens.
He adds : "We will demand Hayali many safeguards if they really support the lifting of oil derivatives, and the demand to increase the budget for the Ministry of oil so it can contribute to the eradication of crises through the provision can be secured from those fuels to improve the performance of the filter and development work.
It is noteworthy that the price of fuel is currently experiencing a rise in prices not seen, as well as the lack of large, in some basic materials such as liquid gas, as the price of one vial in the black market to about 3000 dinars especially in the areas where security tensions, the price of kerosene is a big rise in the price of a liter of which more than 1.250 dinars.
Due observers speculate that the causes of scarcity and high prices to the distribution process by which some said (as chaotic), where there are regions She kerosene and gas now flowing great otherwise other regions suffered from a lack of distribution of these oil derivatives, and many families still Mahtfedah Bakabonat oil to non-arrival originally.
The Ministry of Oil, in the words of spokesman Assem Jihad have expressed concern over the implementation of that resolution at the present time, because of the deteriorating security situation, which significantly hindered the development process and the establishment of the Iraqi refineries, as well as the pipes for the oil tanker to acts of sabotage on an ongoing basis, which hinder the process of providing all that is needed for the street in oil derivatives (by saying Jihad).
He adds : also happened in the past year that has been cut in funds allocated for the importation of oil derivatives and funds to $ 500 million per month to 200 million dollars has been timely big deficit in the capacity to provide such derivatives, which called the decision to allocate $ 800 million a month to re-import and simple example, what would be the case if they were raised to support entirely?
The Jihad : the need to allocate the funds required to meet the need of local oil derivatives, and without the big deficit will happen in the process of providing adequate quantity of petroleum products to meet the needs of citizens.
Stressing that the provision at the present time to provide oil derivatives is one of the import and therefore any reduction in the amounts allocated to it with the survival of the refineries on the current status will be big problems between Jihad and that the demand for potatoes kerosine and gasoline continues to increase because of a severe shortage of electricity, making use of such articles in the operation of small electrical generators.
