The aviation division will brief the committee on PIA’s overall position and developments regarding the restructuring plan. The ECC is likely to approve financial support for the national flag carrier.
Approval of necessary amendments and exemptions for the Gwadar port and Gwadar free economic zone is also included in the agenda. A summary prepared by the maritime affair division will be presented before the committee.
