ISLAMABAD: The Senate Standing Committee on Commerce has taken up issues related to the export of donkey hide and meat and stressed that it could fetch hard-earned foreign exchange.
The Senate Standing Committee on Commerce, chaired by Senator Anusha Rahman, met on Thursday at the Parliament House. The committee also discussed the export of donkey hide and meat, which has been banned since November 2023. The chairperson of the committee stressed that resolving these issues would not only attract foreign exchange but also generate employment. It was highlighted the importance of clarifying the understanding of Article 13 in the Pakistan-Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement (FTA) and the panel urged the Ministry to focus on the creation of dispute resolution mechanisms.
Moreover, the ministry officials briefed the committee on the policy of re-export of motor vehicles from Pakistan and also delivered a presentation outlining the region-specific scale of exports and prospects. They also discussed the initiatives undertaken for 18 exhibitions and events for the promotion of non-traditional products in both existing and new markets during 2023-2024.
While praising the youth of Balochistan and Sindh for their entrepreneurial efforts, Senator Anusha noted the significant number of startups emerging in these provinces. She emphasized that the only way to further encourage the youth is through sustained support.
