KARACHI: The Department of Plant Protection (DPP) has agreed to form a joint committee in association with the Karachi Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI) to resolve issues being faced by the importers and exporters of various commodities.

Speaking at the KCCI on Teusday, DPP Director General (Quarantine) Dr Falak Naz said steps will be taken to ease the overall process and provide relief to both the importers and exporters.

“We will frequently hold dialogues and maintain interactions with the KCCI in order to resolve the issues being faced by traders as we want to create an enabling environment for everyone,” he said.

DPP Director Technical Dr Muhammad Tariq Khan said that most of the issues raised by members of the business community were due to communication gap and lack of information which was being addressed.
