Baghdad – WAA – Nassar Al-Hajj, the Prime Minister’s Advisor for Financial Affairs, confirmed today, Saturday, that the good performance of the financial space is an indication of the government’s ability to spend without problems, while he pointed out that the government was not hindered by the shortage in the regular flow of public revenue in some months.
Saleh told the Iraqi News Agency (INA), “The government’s financial policy worked towards the principle of fiscal space in the economy, which means that the pace of growth in general and investment spending on projects in particular were not hampered by the temporary shortage in the regular flow of public revenue in some months.”

He added, “Therefore, the good performance of the fiscal space indicates the government’s ability to increase spending or social support to support the economy without causing serious financial problems such as inflation or a large deficit.”
He continued, “This space is still available when the state’s financial situation is good, and allows the government to take fiscal policies to stimulate economic growth, such as increasing spending on infrastructure or improving social services.” https://www.ina.iq/221509–.htm
