Abstract

After the failure of negotiations between the Kurdistan political parties and the Ba'ath Party, the Iraqi government withdrew the governmental and administrative institutions in the Kurdistan regions, and this withdrawal created an administrative and legal space, and accordingly the Kurdistan political parties thought of enacting a special law to fill this gap. For this purpose, the political leadership of the Kurdistan parties formed a special committee consisting of 15 members to write a draft law for the National Assembly of Kurdistan - Iraq. This committee submitted the draft to the political leadership on (28/4/1992), and they approved Law No. (1) Of 1992 in the name of the Law of the National Assembly of Kurdistan – Iraq (It's called now amended the Election Law for the Kurdistan Parliament – Iraq) .In this study, we shed light on this law in order to know the nature of this law.
