PM: Approving allocation of serviced residential plots to medical and health personnel
In recognition of the efforts of Iraq's medical and health personnel during the COVID-19 pandemic, PM Muhammed S. Al-Sudani approved on Saturday the allocation of serviced residential plots to this professional community in Baghdad and the provinces.
"This is based on Decision No. 34 of 2020 issued by the Higher Committee for Health and National Safety, which in its first clause instructed the relevant authorities to allocate serviced residential plots exclusively to healthcare workers who were in direct contact with COVID-19 patients," according to the PM's media office statement - received by the Iraqi News Agency - INA.
The Ministry of Health is instructed to prepare lists from all health directorates in Baghdad and the provinces of those eligible under Cabinet Decision No. 31 of 2020, after removing the names of those who have already received plots.
The Directorate of Municipalities at the Ministry of Construction, Housing, Municipalities, and Public Works has been directed to request from provincial municipality departments the names of those who have already been allocated residential plots.
Provincial municipalities have also been instructed to prioritize the distribution of serviced residential plots to the eligible medical and health personnel covered by the Cabinet Decision.
