Majlis Commission Says No to Unsupervised Imports

Members of the Majlis Joint Commission annulled an earlier ruling that very recently allowed import of machinery, raw materials, seeds and fertilizers without obliging importers to follow the normal foreign exchange allocation procedures imposed by the government. 
Mehdi Mofateh, spokesperson of the commission, said Wednesday that the ruling was scrapped after Abdolnaser Hemmati, governor of Central Bank of Iran, informed the commission about the impact of the move on his forex stabilization plans.
