THE MOST PROMINENT ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE ASSEMBLY

IKNA (IraqiKurdistan National Assembly) has held its first meeting following its establishment in 4/6/1992. Six years have passed since its foundation. Its first term was extended after the expiration of the originally agreed three years term, due to the internal fighting which prevented the holding of elections for a second term. Although it convened only twice during during the period 23/ 12/1994 to 15/9/1996, to extend its term of office, the Assembly has nonetheless succeeded both before and after that inactive period, in enacting inter alia, the following:

Pass the law of the Regional Council of Ministers, and laws in respect of (15) ministries, beside
state ministries (Regional)

Pass the Declaration of Federal Union Decision between Kurdistan
Region and Iraq in 4/10/ 1992, as an option for the legal relationship with
the central government, and an interim exercise of the right of self
determination. Though the decision is taken unilaterally, it is considered a
unified stand of all the segments of. the people of Kurdistan, and as a legal
basis for any constitutional relationship with the government and state of
Iraq.
