Shafaq News/ Iraq's legislative body will kick off a 30-day recess the next weekend, a member of the legal committee said on Wednesday, but the budget bill referral might postpone it.
Committee Member Raed al-Maliki told Shafaq News Agency that the current parliament's first legislative year ends next week.
