    Country Policy and Information Note Iraq: Opposition to the government in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI) Version 2.0 June 2021 Preface Purpose This note provides country of origin information (COI) and analysis of COI for use by Home Office decision makers handling particular types of protection and human rights claims (as set out in the Introduction section). It is not intended to be an exhaustive survey of a particular subject or theme. It is split into two main sections: (1) analysis and assessment of COI and other evidence; and (2) COI. These are explained in more detail below. Assessment This section analyses the evidence relevant to this note – i.e. the COI section; refugee/human rights laws and policies; and applicable caselaw – by describing this and its inter-relationships, and provides an assessment of, in general, whether one or more of the following applies: • A person is reasonably likely to face a real risk of persecution or serious harm • The general humanitarian situation is so severe as to breach Article 15(b) of European Council Directive 2004/83/EC (the Qualification Directive) / Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights as transposed in paragraph 339C and 339CA(iii) of the Immigration Rules • The security situation presents a real risk to a civilian’s life or person such that it would breach Article 15(c) of the Qualification Directive as transposed in paragraph 339C and 339CA(iv) of the Immigration Rules • A person is able to obtain protection from the state (or quasi state bodies) • A person is reasonably able to relocate within a country or territory • A claim is likely to justify granting asylum, humanitarian protection or other form of leave, and • If a claim is refused, it is likely or unlikely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002.

Agreements 2016-18-644 and 2017-40-836 are joint agreements between UNDP’s Funding Facility for Stabilization (FFS) and the Iraq Crisis Response and Resilience Program (ICRRP) and KfW. The overview enables KfW to ascertain the activities undertaken during the reporting period, issues that may have arisen, and a brief financial summary. Budget Overview: UNDP’s financial management system does not differentiate between agreements based on the donor’s identifiers. As such, the financial information in Annex I provides a costing of each of the completed projects and below provides a general overview. These were manually identified and organized by the agreement number. As per the Financial Arrangements, official UNDP financial reporting is provided only from the Certified Financial Reports which are released every June for the previous calendar year by donor and UNDP project. Further, for those projects that are not yet completed, activity budgets are subject to change. Changes may arise due to variation orders or extensions of projects. Only upon completion of projects and delivery of payments are figures final. Nonetheless, only UNDP Certified Financial Reports comprise official reporting. The following is an informal financial summary for FFIS components of the Agreements: Approx.
