The Kirkuk Provincial Council (, ) is the provincial council of the Kirkuk Governorate, based in Kirkuk, Iraq.https://ihec.iq/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/القوائم.pdf
History Arab and Turkmen boycotts
In November 2006, Arab and Turkmen members of the council withdrew, claiming that the Kurdish majority, which holds 26 of the 41 seats on the council, had excluded them from decision-making and governance. Arab members returned to the council in December 2007 after a new power-sharing deal was agreed.
Committees
The council has formed a number of committees.
The principle of consensus, which was adopted by the Iraqi National Assembly in forming its committees and in forming the Iraqi Transitional Government, has been adopted by KPC in forming its committees. One of the committees is Article 58 and the Victims of Ethnic Cleansing Policies Committee to follow up the procedures of normalizing the situation in Kirkuk Province according to the new Iraqi Constitution.
Human rights committee When in early 2013, a survey conducted by Iraqi women's organization Pana and Iraqi-German NGO WADI revealed a still high prevalence of female genital mutilation of 38% in Kirkuk province, the provincial council's Human rights committee disputed the data, decrying a loss of reputation.
