Iran's NIGC Says Paying Its Full Share to Help Renovate Classrooms

National Iranian Gas Company has met all its financial commitments to help the Education Ministry renovate schools in the deprived regions, the company's financial manager said.
"NIGC paid $96 million between 2015-17 to the Organization for the Development, Renovation and Equipping of Schools affiliated to the Education Ministry,” Mohammad Hossein Hosseini was quoted as saying.
As per law, NIGC must pay the Education Ministry 20% of its revenue, and the money is supposed to be spent on building new school, renovate old ones and get rid of the older kerosene heaters that at times create disasters in the winter seasons.
