Legal expert: There are two ways to constitutionally dissolve parliament... one of them cannot be implemented
On Thursday, legal expert Ali Al-Tamimi identified the constitutional mechanisms for dissolving the Iraqi parliament.
Al-Tamimi said in a statement to “Nass” (August 4, 2022): “Article 64 of the constitution stipulates that the House of Representatives is dissolved by an absolute majority of its members, i.e. half of the total number plus one, and this is done in two ways. The Speaker of the House of Representatives is signed by 110 deputies. As for the second method, it is a request from the Prime Minister and with the approval of the President of the Republic.
He explained, "If we exclude the second method, because the current government is a daily business that did not come from the current parliament, neither it nor the President of the Republic, and therefore neither the Prime Minister nor the President of the Republic has the right to submit the joint application," noting that "this is in accordance with Federal Court decision 121 of 2022.

While the legal expert pointed out that “there remains one way to dissolve the current parliament, which is to dissolve the parliament itself, that is, at the request of a third of the members and the approval of the absolute majority of the number of members, that is, half of the total number plus one.”
Al-Tamimi indicated that "when voting on the dissolution of the House of Representatives by the absolute majority of its members, the President of the Republic calls for general elections in the country within a maximum period of 60 days from the date of the dissolution, and certainly the Council of Ministers continues to conduct daily affairs until the formation of the new government."
He also pointed out that "there is no limitation for the term of the caretaker government in the day-to-day affairs in Article 64 of the Constitution regarding the dissolution of the House of Representatives, in contrast to the limitation that came in Article 61, paragraph eight of the Constitution related to the withdrawal of confidence from the Prime Minister, in which the Council of Ministers is considered resigned," explaining that " The period of conducting daily business in it was no more than thirty days until the formation of the new Council of Ministers,” noting that “the reason in the case of dissolving the House of Representatives requires long procedures that cannot be accomplished within 30 days, unlike the case of withdrawal of confidence in which this can be done with the presence of the House of Representatives. The elected representatives and the presence of the voting president of the republic, which does not exist in the event of the dissolution of the House of Representatives.

He added, "Dialogue with them we have tried and experienced, and nothing is good for the country but ruin and dependency, and there is no benefit from dialogue with them," noting that "the malicious lawsuits obstructed the formation of the majority government."
He continued, directing his speech to the citizens, "Oh, the Iraqi people, if you want change, I am waiting for you, and I have not decided to run in the new elections or not."
He continued, "I call for early elections after the dissolution of the current parliament, and the protesters must stay and continue, and do not delude you that the revolution is a struggle for power."

A new tweet by Al-Sadr - Urgent
Today, Wednesday, the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, ."issued a new "tweet
Al-Sadr said in his “Tweet” on Twitter, which I followed (Baghdad Today): “If there are two camps, one for the movement and the other for the framework, it does not mean that the crowd is affiliated with either of them and that they share my ”.opinion :Below is the text of the tweet
translation:
In his name, the Most High, the Most High said: (And if God had willed, He would have made you one nation, but He leads astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills, and you will be questioned about what you used to do).
There are those who play the chord of unity and non-splitting (the Shiite class), and this is indeed a very important matter as it is not hidden. However, the unity of the class must be in accordance with the general regulations that correspond to the heavenly laws, the legal rulings, and the customary social systems
When the people of the solution and the contract, so to speak. Otherwise, what would be the explanation for the differences between the pure imams and their cousins (Bani al-Abbas)?! Until the order reached them to kill the pure imams directly or indirectly. Yes, the unity of the class is currently very important if it is based on love of the homeland and rejection of dependence and real reform and rejecting corruption and the corrupt and holding them accountable and serving the poor and the needy and rejecting the exclusivity of money for people of rank and responsibility and in contrast to a bright image of the doctrine not with violence, exclusivity, authoritarianism and injustice, but Iraq is the first capital of Shiism In the sense of the return of others to Iraq, not to be dependent on others.
And in the midst of that, there were two camps here: the camp for those seeking unity without guidance or an enlightening book.. and the camp for those seeking unity according to mental, religious, social, national and moral foundations and criteria. In general, we are with the second for sure, and we will not deviate from that, especially with the knowledge that this is what the authority, the people, and everyone with a heart want from us.
It is also important to draw attention to what should not be overlooked.. Frankly: If there is: the current camp and the tire camp, it does not mean that our beloved brothers in the popular crowd are affiliated with one of these two sides.
Rather, I am certain that they share my opinion in what I said regarding the request for unity within the heavenly, religious, human and ideological frameworks. They, i.e. the Mujahideen in the Popular Mobilization, are closer to our views and our adoptions (the Sadr family), rather most of them refer in their imitation and all their actions to the two Sadrist martyrs (their pure souls sanctified).
Hence, I greet them with the greeting of Islam and I wish them steadfastness in the field of jihad and that God unites us and them under the banner of the absolute truth, the owner of the age and time and the master of reformers, Imam Mahdi, may God hasten the Almighty.
Sharif's face And as they sacrificed for the sake of their country, they are fully prepared to defend reform and the absolute right, God willing.
I am fully aware of their courage and sincerity, for they were among the soldiers of Iraq and the fighters under our banner Al-Sadr family against the occupation.
Still, may God Almighty grant them His pleasure. They are from Iraq and to Iraq, and they do not accept subordination or loyalty to anyone other than the savior and reformer from the family of the Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon them.
Wholes. I ask God to unite us and them and to end the separation between us, for I am certain that they are not students of money or worldly affairs, but rather students of truth.. and the truth prevails.
And it is beyond compare.
