ERBIL - Masrour Barzani, the new prime minister of the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG), has finalized his Cabinet with a nearly complete shakeup – and will formally oversee a leaderless Ministry of Natural Resources, moving oil sector architect Ashti Hawrami to an advisory post after 13 years as minister.

The regional Parliament approved Barzani's government on Wednesday without a minister of natural resources, and what operational role Hawrami will play as advisor remains unclear. Vital to oil company investors, the minister sits on the five-member KRG Oil and Gas Council, which is the ultimate decision maker for significant contracts and direction within the KRG's energy sector.

Oops - the link.

https://gov.krd/government/the-cabinet/

Yes - this official link to the new KRG Cabinet - confirms that Begard Dilshad Shukrallah - is the new Minister of Agriculture and 'Water Resources' - the plot thickens until such time as we hear more...

You could be right CCC - but who/where is the Minister for Oil etc - there surely has to be one. Or is it that they have not been selected/announced as yet ? Puzzling.....

According to the link as below - it reads...

"Begard Dilshad Shukrllah (PUK) – Minister of Agriculture and Natural Resources"

No mention of 'Water Resources' - but I guess we will just have to wait and see. Interesting that there is no specific mention of a Minister for Oil etc.

Does 'Natural Resources' include their oil and gas.....?
