Iraq presidency approves slashed budget
Iraq's presidency has rubber-stamped a 58.9 billion-dollar budget for 2009, after billions were wiped off spending plans because of a sharp fall in oil prices, a government spokesman said on Friday.
"The presidential council approved yesterday and without modifying the 2009 budget adopted by parliament," said Nasser al-Ani, a spokesman for the council, which includes President Jalal Talabani and his two vice-presidents.
The budget, slashed by nearly a quarter in recent months, was passed by parliament in March, when oil prices had tumbled below an already downwardly revised forecast of 50 dollars a barrel.
New York's main contract fell on Friday to 51.99 dollars a barrel.
The shortfall in the country's finances comes at a difficult time for Iraq as the war-battered nation of 29 million people struggles to emerge from a brutal sectarian conflict triggered by the 2003 US-led invasion.
With violence now hovering around its lowest levels in six years, officials have pledged to set about the monumental task of rebuilding the country's shattered infrastructure.
Restoring basic services such as water, electricity and sewage disposal is crucial to ensuring that the sectarian bloodshed that peaked in 2006 and 2007 is not triggered again by civilian unrest.
A projected 20.3-billion-dollar deficit is expected to be financed by unspent allocations from the 2008 budget.
As for state revenues, 86 percent are projected to come from oil sales, based on projected exports of two million barrels a day.

South Korean firms vow to continue oil exploration in Iraq
South Korean firms said Friday they would continue drilling for oil in an autonomous region of Iraq despite a decision by the central government to ban them from taking part in tenders.
Baghdad's decision will not affect oil exploration in autonomous Kurdistan, a spokesman for the state-run Korea National Oil Corp (KNOC) told AFP.
A South Korean consortium led by KNOC began exploring oilfields this year in Kurdistan. A deal was signed with the region's government in June last year despite protests from Iraq's central government.
Iraq said Thursday that its oil minister Hussein al-Shahristani had penalised South Korea's top refiner SK Energy and KNOC by banning them from taking part in tenders.
It said Korean firms could bid in the future if they cancel the 2.1-billion-dollar deal with Kurdistan.
SK Energy and KNOC said they have no plan to cancel the deal.
"That's an important deal. We cannot accept the minister's remarks that it is against Iraqi law," the KNOC spokesman said.
"However, we are also ready to take part in oil exploration projects controlled by Iraq's central government."
The spokesman said Iraq should respect a 3.55 billion dollar oil-for-development deal forged between the two countries in February during Iraqi President Jalal Talabani's visit to Seoul.
That deal would allow Seoul to develop oilfields in southern Iraq's Basra area. In return, South Korea would help build power plants and other infrastructure in the war-torn country.
The deal with Kurdistan granted the KNOC-led consortium access to eight oilfields believed to hold 7.2 billion barrels of untapped crude. Five of the fields are located near the capital Arbil.
Iraq has the world's third largest proven oil reserves with more than 115 billion barrels.
But the central and Kurdish regional governments have been at odds over sharing the nation's oil wealth.
South Korea imports almost all its oil and gas. It is seeking worldwide exploration deals and stakes in foreign energy firms to secure the nation's supplies.
