Just four weeks before the new Iraqi Constitution was due to be completed, international donors were meeting in Jordan, on 18 and 19 July 2005, to discuss Iraqi reconstruction priorities, project implementation and new funding. The European Commission was to attend the meeting to outline its continuing support for the political and economic reconstruction of the country, in particular a €20 million package to support the preparation of the new Constitution. The Commission's €200 million allocation for 2005 was also to cover support for basic services in the areas of basic education, health services and employment generation, technical assistance to the Ministries of Energy and Transport and further assistance in the fields of democracy and human rights. To that date, the Commission's total contribution to the Iraqi reconstruction processed amounts to more than half a billion euro. |
