Tehran, Iran, May 18
By Emil Ilgar - Trend:
The national Iranian budget bill was passed by the Guardian Council after being rejected two times, the Council's official website reported May 18.
The bill was the last time rejected on May 11 by the Guardian Council, but the report says that after emendations the bill was finally passed.
The Guardian Council's member Siamak Rahpeik said earlier that while Iran's parliament had made amendments according to the Council's requests after the previous consideration, the revised bill still contained faults and was therefore returned to the parliament.
