With the dollar exchange rate hitting LD 8.81 on the black-market in Tripoli today, Libya’s Parliament, the House of Representatives (HoR), voted by a majority to summon the Governor of the Central Bank of Libya, his Deputy, and members of the bank’s Board of Directors to discuss the liquidity crisis and the state’s financial affairs in its session last Monday (29 December).
According to its Official Spokesperson, Abdalla Bilhig, the HoR also:
– Summoned the Benghazi based ‘‘Libyan Government’’ and the National Oil Corporation.
– Unanimously approved the budget submitted by the High National Elections Commission (HNEC), stipulating that it be overseen by the HoR’s Finance Committee.
– The House also decided to form a committee to study the situation of retirees.
