rafidainscope - The Parliament has approved the first amendment to the Notaries Public Law, which includes a package of regulatory and administrative provisions aimed at improving workflow within notary public departments. The new amendment focuses on regulating the granting of
powers and imposing strict controls, most notably banning individuals accused of financial corruption from issuing powers of attorney that allow them to dispose of their funds during detention. The amendment also lays the groundwork for a new phase of digital
transformation by regulating the mechanisms for issuing powers of attorney electronically, which will contribute to accelerating and simplifying transactions for citizens. Concurrently, the Parliament deferred any increases in financial allowances for employees and notaries due to the lack of sufficient
financial coverage within the general budget.
