The law, which has yet to be approved by Iraq's parliament, would allow foreign companies to invest in the war-ravaged state and its rich oil fields.
"We hope it can be enacted before the end of the year," Shahristani said of the law.
The US government has lobbied hard for the law to be passed and Bodman urged its approval during a trip to Iraq earlier this month. http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060726/pl_afp/usiraqoilbusiness
