0:00 The House of Representatives decided to postpone consideration of the old rent amendment indefinitely. Thank you. It is clear that you are happy or pleased with this matter. I do not know if you are an owner or a tenant. Many people want to know whether the House of Representatives really said that I will not issue the law in this session and the story is over here or there is something else. Number one, your words are wrong. They are finalized because the general session has been postponed to be considered in the morning on Wednesday, July 2, 2025. Counselor Hanafi El-Gebali said that the government is not ready, and for the second time, the words that you heard. He postponed the general session to tomorrow
0:49 morning. He also called on the newspapers, media and the media to follow the session because it will be a historic session. The subject has been postponed indefinitely. This talk is not true. If you are happy about this, whether you are an owner or a tenant, let us make it clear to the people that not issuing this law is not in the interest of the elderly, whom the honorable representatives were talking about yesterday, and some of them were shouting, “ Our people.” Where will the weak and incapable elderly go? We will throw people out into the street and some of these representatives talked
1:37 about seclusion a lot. I will not say like others that they are looking for electoral propaganda because I am one of the people who do not doubt time and it is impossible for me to betray anyone, but the honorable representatives who are upset because of this law, a respected representative came out and said that she does not agree to amending the old rent at all. I mean, do the honorable representatives imagine that the amendment they are making is a proposed amendment that they are working on or is it a court ruling that they must implement? Counselor Boulos Fahmy, President of the Supreme Constitutional Court, set a time for the issuance of this law so that the House of Representatives does not have the space to say that it will not be issued in this session, so we
2:25 postpone it to the next session, just as happened with the commercial legal case. It was postponed several times until it was issued. Counselor Boulos Fahmy was afraid for the owner and the tenant and did not want to put them in front of each other and say that the fixed rent is unconstitutional, the rent has become inappropriate and that it is a waste of the values of justice. Counselor Boulos Fahmy did not want to leave people at each other’s throats, owner and tenant, and put a council between them Representatives and father and committed to issuing this law before the end of the last session. Today we come to the people who are happy and ululating and saying that it was postponed indefinitely, as is the
3:12 case on some hostile channels and groups that promote rumors from both sides. I am neither with the owner nor with the tenant. Even if I speak in favor of the owners, as some of you say, I will not come out and say this. But in the event that the law is not issued, we are facing a real disaster. This is an appeal to Mr. President of the Republic and Mr. Prime Minister. The matter will be before the court. The owner will give a warning to the tenant, telling him that the rent for this unit is unconstitutional. The rent is fixed according to the market value, which is 5,000 pounds. The tenant will not pay because he has a lawyer who will tell him to leave him and give him a warning of 15 pounds. So
4:01 there will be a dispute. The owner will not be silent. He will go to court and file an eviction lawsuit for non-payment of rent, according to the constitutional ruling that said that the rent It is not possible for it to remain fixed and the rent that achieves justice is the one I gave him the 5000 EGP warning. The judge will not be able to take it to the experts. When the expert’s report comes and says that the rent for this apartment is estimated at 3000 EGP, the tenant is obligated to pay so that he is not ordered to evict him. So we have actually put the ordinary citizen who cannot pay 1000 EGP or 400 EGP or 250
4:46 EGP because some people come out and say that the rent is exaggerated. No sir, the Constitutional Court told you without exaggeration, without excess and without exploiting the tenant’s need for housing. Today, 1000 EGP does not achieve that, and neither 250 EGP nor 400 EGP do. We will gradually address the matter until the rent reaches a reasonable value after seven years. There are alternatives that will be put in place so that people can improve their conditions during the seven years. The Prime Minister in his last speech, the one who was taken was talking about there is no Someone will be evicted, but there is a liberalization. A liberalization means that after seven years, the assessment will be
5:33 according to the agreement between the owner and the tenant. Of course, this talk did not please the honorable representatives, and they say that this will put pressure on people. Well, the Prime Minister said that those who are unable will be taken into account, and there are new statistics being made. The meaning of his words is that the state will stand by those who really need support. So, the people who are upset with those who are unable, if you are really afraid for those who are unable, do not leave them in the face of the enemy during a transitional period that was made for people to adjust their situations. But what is upset is that there would have been evictions after another seven years if this law had not been passed. The owner and the tenant are both brought to court,
6:21 and the court will rule according to the ruling of the Supreme Constitutional Court. A court that has no business in seven years or otherwise. Today, there is no such thing as fixed rent, and the owner and tenant are disputing over the rent, and the one who will estimate it is an expert. Accordingly, eviction rulings are being issued now, instead of us We were saying it won't come out for another seven years and again I say this is not to cast doubt on the integrity of the representatives who were speaking yesterday, but we want to look at the matter with foresight. Today I object to the brother, it will be reformulated for another seven years, and it is not in defense of the government, so that no one comes out and says in defense of the government. The data that was submitted to the House of Representatives is really not enough to decide the matter, but I blame the
7:08 people who were applauding today that this matter will be postponed and gave an opportunity to other people to spread rumors that reached you that it is for an indefinite period. Thank you, sir, don't be happy about this because this talk is really against the tenant's interest all the time, and this is what fuels social peace. Guys, let's look at the matter from our conscience, no one will take anything with him. I apologize for the excitement, but the matter is really annoying today. You are talking about something and because of what you said, the opposite might happen. I wish you all the best, and I just wanted to confide in you while
7:54 I am on my way Good night
