US embassy cable - 05KUWAIT4938

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

SUBJECT: NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DID NOT/NOT VOTE ON KATRINA AID 
PACKAGE DURING NOVEMBER 28 AND 29 SESSIONS 
 
REF: KUWAIT 4846 
 
The Kuwaiti National Assembly did not/not vote on the GOK's 
$500 million Katrina aid package during its regularly 
scheduled sessions on November 28 and 29, despite MPs' 
previous suggestions the issue would be addressed (reftel). 
Debate over the National Assembly's response to the annual 
Amiri Speech and a proposal to increase teachers' salaries 
dominated the two parliamentary sessions.
