Monitoring Parliamentary Performance, Oversight, and Representation of Governorates’ Issues in the Fourth Session of the Syrian People’s Assembly – Discussion of the Energy Sector

How did the Syrian People’s Assembly discuss the state of the energy sector?

A report by Raasid Syria monitors the performance of members of the Syrian People’s Assembly during its fourth session, held on 20 September 2026, which was dedicated to discussing the state of the energy sector in the presence of the Minister of Energy.

The report documented 87 recorded interventions addressing issues that directly affect citizens’ daily lives, including fuel prices, pricing mechanisms and subsidies, oil and gas production, the state of the Baniyas Refinery, electricity and renewable energy, as well as water, dams, and irrigation. It also highlighted service-related demands concerning several governorates.

The report further examined questions related to contract transparency and resource management, the clarity of government responses, and the challenges in ensuring that all members of parliament had the opportunity to participate amid the high volume of interventions and limited time.

The report emphasizes that assessing parliamentary oversight requires more than counting the questions raised. It also involves following up on government commitments, verifying the implementation of announced plans, and tracking the questions referred to the ministry for written responses.
