The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) has decided to take legal action to ensure that the federal government in Baghdad implements the official results of the 2024 census. According to these results, the Kurdistan Region's rightful share of the budget should be 14.14% rather than the currently applied 12.68%. This stance follows a thorough evaluation of the census data, with the government arguing that relying on a lower percentage undermines the region's constitutional and financial rights. KRG officials stress that budget allocations must be based on accurate and verified statistical data. Official dialogues and legal steps are planned with relevant authorities in Baghdad in the coming phase to address and correct this financial and administrative discrepancy. [gov.krd](https://gov.krd)
