Alaqma said, "We want to know the reasons for the
delay, the names of the companies that will execute the project, when the bids
will be opened, and the financial closure for the companies bidding," Jo24
News reported.
He also stated that the committee wants to know the
government's contribution to the project and its final costs, considering the
existing grants and figures announced previously, as it is unclear whether the
support is still in place or not.
Alaqma concluded his statement by saying: "There is a
delay in
implementing the project, and we do not know when it will end due to
the continuous postponement of opening bids and financial closure."
