In a statement to the official website of the Democratic Party of Kurdistan, Hogr Chato, the Coordinator of Shames Network said: (After the occupation, the Iraqi government decided to prevent any organization that did not obtain working permit from the federal government to work in areas falling under the authority of the federal government, which has prevented many organizations to deliver their services to those areas. According to the constitution, the permits issued by the Kurdistan Regional Government to the organizations operating there, are legal and legitimate, but Baghdad always neglects the law and the Constitution and does not do so).

On the legality of the work of those organizations that Baghdad stands in the way of their activities, the Coordinator of the Shams Network says: (There is no provision in the Constitution and the law that prevents activities of Kurdistan organizations, but after the events of Oct. 16, Baghdad took these decisions, where the Kurdistan organizations had a prominent and noticeable role in those areas and the federal government government could not prevent the work of those organizations.)

There are dozens of Kurdistan organizations that can provide and implement service projects, especially in coordination with international organizations in the areas newly liberated from in Ninawa, Kirkuk and other occupied Kurdistan areas. In this regard Mr Chato says: (decision to prevent the services of these organizations is a violation of the constitution and all the organizations need to be free and active in these areas)
