Informed sources regarding the trajectory of political consensus related to completing the cabinet formation have reported a tendency to resolve the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs portfolio in favor of Basra Governorate. The sources indicated that discussions have led to the selection of a new youth figure, from outside well-known political and media circles, to assume this important ministerial portfolio. This direction comes within the framework of efforts to complete the ministerial cabinet of Prime Minister Ali Al-Zaidi's government, following its recent winning of the parliament's confidence vote, with voting on several portfolios postponed due to an incomplete quorum for the candidates.
