The aim of this study is to identify the effect of enabling the effectiveness of the work of the audit committees in private commercial banks and to identify the extent of awareness of the importance of empowerment in the work of these committees, especially as it is known that these committees, especially the inspection committees that go to private banks and from various sources including committees of the Central Bank of Iraq Committees of the Securities Commission and finally committees of the external audit offices, through an analysis of the determinants of empowerment in the performance of the most important work of the audit committees, namely: supervising the process of preparing reports, supervising the system of internal control and risk management, And the independence of the internal auditor, to strengthen the effectiveness and independence of the external auditor In order to achieve these objectives, a questionnaire form consisting of two lists prepared for this purpose was designed to be distributed to a sample of banks and a sample of the audit offices and a sample from the Securities Commission final, The analysis of the data in the SPSS program examined the hypotheses and the research reached the importance of the dimensions of empowerment in the work of the audit committees by 84%. The most important of the dimensions of empowerment is motivation, training and knowledge on the work of the audit committees, while the second form, Among the three independent samples are the Central Bank, the Securities Commission and the external audit offices, which are considered inspection committees on these private banks. The impact of empowerment is on supervision of the reporting process (77%). The impact of empowerment in the second dimension is the supervision of the internal control and risk management system (80%). The third dimension was to strengthen the effectiveness and independence of the internal auditor (84%). The fourth dimension is to strengthen the effectiveness and independence of the external auditor (79%). There were no significant differences between the three independent samples according to the t-test of the independent samples and their consensus on the overall effect of the overall audit ability by (79%). The research ended with several recommendations including: Giving importance to the audit committees by the administration, As well as the selection of members according to the standard of professionalism and experience and the need to emphasize the reliance on an integrated system of control and scrutiny and motivation of the principle of self-control by members, as well as highlighting the system of accountability and accountability by the Audit Committees, and to find a real and effective existence of the Audit Committees besides Mam achieving effective communication to cancel all the gaps that may occur between the administration and the expectations of users and external auditors, and that the necessary decisions and taking them as the closest to the operational reality of the banks
Background: Concha bullosa is an anatomical variation which defined by pneumatizaton of middle turbinate that occurred with an incidence of (5 to 25%) in the normal population.It has the potential to cause crowding and obstruction of the middle meatus and nasal cavity. There are many surgical techniques which utilized for its management. Study goal: Is to compare the formation of adhesion between endoscopic partial lateral middle turbinectomy and middle turbinate trimming in cases of concha bullosa. Patients and methods: A prospectivecomparative clinical trial was performed in the ENT department at Al-Shahid Ghazi AL Hariri Hospital in Medical City over the period from September 2016 to August 2017. Fifty nine (59) patients {24 males

Show MoreIn this study tungsten oxide and graphene oxide (GO-WO2.89) were successfully combined using the ultra-sonication method and embedded with polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) to prepare novel low-fouling membranes for ultrafiltration applications. The properties of the modified membranes and performance were investigated using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), contact angle (CA), water permeation flux, and bovine serum albumin (BSA) rejection. It was found that the modified PPSU membrane fabricated from 0.1 wt.% of GO-WO2.89 possessed the best characteristics, with a 40.82° contact angle and 92.94% porosity. The permeation flux of the best membrane was the highest. The pure water permeation f

The result of this has been a proliferation of challenges for authorities with regard to road traffic management. A consequence of this has been congestion of traffic, more accidents, and pollution. Accidents are a still major cause of death, despite the development of sophisticated systems for traffic management and other technologies linked with vehicles. Hence, it is necessary that a common system for accident management is developed. For instance, traffic congestion in most urban areas can be alleviated by the real-time planning of routes. However, the designing of an efficie

Show MoreThe instant global trend towards developing tight reservoir is great; however, development can be very challenging due to stress and geomechanical properties effect in horizontal well placement and hydraulic fracturing design. Many parameters are known to be important to determine the suitable layer for locating horizontal well such as petrophysical and geomechanical properties. In the present study, permeability sensitivity to stress is also considered in the best layer selection for well placement. The permeability sensitivity to the stress of the layers was investigated using measurements of 27 core sample at different confining stress values. 1-D mechanical earth model (MEM) was built and converted to a 3-D full-field geomechanical mode
