MTV Sources: Banking Secrecy Law to Be Approved Through Joint Committees
There will be no legislative session soon—not this week or the next—despite the urgent need to pass the banking secrecy law that the government approved in its last session and referred to Parliament.
According to MTV's sources, the legislative session will be replaced by meetings of the joint committees next week, during which the draft banking secrecy law referred by the government will be approved. Under the expected scenario, no parliamentary bloc will oppose the law; otherwise, it would appear to be defending the theft of depositors' funds and corruption. As a result, all blocs are expected to vote in favor of the law, which means it will inevitably be passed later in a general legislative session.
This way, the government delegation can attend the International Monetary Fund meetings backed by the joint committees' approval of the law, ensuring it does not contradict the IMF's reform demands.
