After nearly three months of negotiations, Iraq's major Shiite bloc has decided to form a Cabinet without members of interim Prime Minister Ayad Allawi's Iraqi List party, lawmakers said Sunday.
Prime Minister-designate Ibrahim al-Jaafari could submit a list of ministers to parliament as soon as Monday, they said.
"There is a big expectation that tomorrow there will be an announcement of a new government without the participation of the Iraqi List," said Saad Jouawd Qandil, a member of al-Jaafari's Shiite-dominated Iraqi United Alliance.
