KABUL (Pajhwok): The Wolesi Jirga on Saturday rejected a fourth legislative presidential decree issued during the lower house of parliament’s summer recess.
Sher Wali Wardak, the deputy head of the house economic committee, presented the presidential decree regarding the establishment of a presidential economic advisor’s office as an independent budgetary unit.
He said based on the decree a new department would be created with 60 staff members, adding that the decree was against the laws and there was no need for such a department.
