"We know that the Constitution gives full authority of the Council of Representatives in transfers, according to the article" 62 "of it, but the prime minister insists on non-deductibility of this amount and keep the share of ministries as is". The minister said the thing which does not allow the Ministry of spent longer authenticate the House of Representatives next budget includes the implementation of new projects, these projects are few in number compared to the ongoing projects which constitute the overwhelming majority, calling on all provinces to receive twenty percent of the amounts of financial allocations for each province.
