EN ESPAÑOL

Text of the Draft Iraqi Constitution
(Translated from the Arabic by The Associated Press)

Chapter Two: Rights and Freedoms

Article (30): 1st - The state guarantees social and health insurance, the basics for a free and honourable life for the individual and the family - especially children and women - and works to protect them from illiteracy, fear and poverty and provides them with housing and the means to rehabilitate and take care of them. This shall be regulated by law.

Comment: Freedom and democracy brings the right of health care to everyone.
