Iraq's provincial elections on schedule(Oct 2008)
Quote:
BAGHDAD, May 30 (UPI) --
Iraq's Parliament speaker said Friday there were technicalities delaying the adoption of provincial election laws, but they were still on schedule for October.
Speaker Mahmoud al-Mashhadani, a Sunni with the Iraqi Accordance Front, said Parliament would vote on the provincial council laws by next week, citing "technical" reasons for the delays.
The Iraqi Constitution mandated provincial elections should immediately follow parliamentary elections, which were held in December 2005.
"There would be enough time to hold the provincial council elections (in) October," Mashhadani told Voices of Iraq.
