FAA, Ansar Allah al-Awfiya's official channel, published this evening a set of statements by Ahmad al-Dalfi, identified as a member of the parliamentary Security and Defence Committee, saying lawmakers are proceeding to legislate a law for older graduates. He put Interior Ministry retirements at around 75,000 over the current and previous year, argued the resulting posts should go to older graduates rather than be deleted by the Finance Ministry, and said the finance minister had been a colleague in parliament but changed after taking office. It is a single channel carrying one lawmaker's remarks, with no outside coverage in the collected material.

“We are proceeding with the rest of the MPs to legislate a law that does justice to older graduates and provides real solutions for their file … In the Interior Ministry alone around 75,000 members were retired during this year and last … Instead of the Finance Ministry deleting the grades resulting from staffing movement, older graduates have the better right to fill them.”
ماضون مع بقية النواب في تشريع قانون ينصف الخريجين القدامى ويوفر حلولاً حقيقية لملفهم … في وزارة الداخلية وحدها أُحيل نحو 75 ألف منتسب إلى التقاعد خلال العام الحالي والماضي … بدلاً من قيام وزارة المالية بحذف الدرجات الناتجة عن حركة الملاك، فإن الخريجين القدامى أولى بإشغالها
Watch: introduction of the graduates bill with a named sponsor; a Finance Ministry response on the deleted grades; a published hiring allocation for the Interior Ministry vacancies; outside coverage of the 75,000 figure — any of these moves this file.
