Regarding bulk supply category, no regional benchmarks have been found, however, a category i.e. group housing societies, somewhat similar in nature to bulk consumer category at 11kV is available in Mumbai, India. On the Agriculture side, Pakistan consumer end classification is more refined, whereas in case of Dhaka, Bangladesh and Mumbai, India there is only one category. A comparative analysis of the tariff applicable in Pakistan vis-a-vis Dhaka (Bangladesh) & Mumbai (India) is attached herewith.

(b) Action was taken on 30th October 2015 against 18 Baggage Handlers, hired through contractor, in connection with a complaint about their involvement in suspicious activities including pilferage from luggage. They were all terminated from service and their Airport Entry Passes were confiscated. (c) Such complaints about pilferage from passenger’s luggage are invariably investigated by PIA’ s Security Division. In some of the cases, no clue is found about the alleged theft. However, if it is established on the basis of CCTV footage or other reliable sources, that the evidence against the accused Baggage Handlers is undisputed they are placed under suspension and disciplinary proceedings are initiated against them. Besides, police is called for help and such employees face criminal cases in Court of Law. Daily-wages Baggage Handlers face outright termination from job. (d) Following steps are being taken to control such theft:- (i) Surveillance of Baggage Handling/build-up area through CCTV. (ii) Increased frisking/screening of Baggage Handlers through Airport Security Force and PTA’s own Security staff. (iii) Creating awareness among passengers to keep their checked bags locked and always watch their bags even if they are passing through the security scanners. (iv) Requesting passengers through text messages to keep their valuable objects with them and don’t store them in their checked bags. (v) Emphasizing to passengers to know what they have

  • En En Draft Report
    EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT 2014 - 2019 Delegation for relations with South Asia DRAFT REPORT on the 10th EP/Pakistan Interparliamentary Meeting (Islamabad & Lahore) 16 / 20 February 2015 by Ms. Jean Lambert, Chair of the Delegation ------------ 05/03/2015 PK/am 1/18 EN EN Introduction The last time the EP South Asia Delegation also led by Ms Jean Lambert MEP, visited Pakistan, was in late 2012; the country was already in pre-electoral mood, 6 months before the elections that saw the victory of the PML-N. This was the first democratic transition from one elected civilian government to another in Pakistan’s modern history – and recognised as such by the EU, which fielded an EOM led by Chief Observer Michael Gahler MEP; Richard Howitt MEP had led, at the time, the EP Delegation which was part of the overall observation team. The 2012 talks had focused on the steps taken by Islamabad in rule of law and good governance issues, which had helped the country successfully apply for the EU’s special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance – or, more colloquially, the GSP+ scheme, in effect since 1.1.2014. This arrangement, which was examined by the EP Plenary in December 2013, entails enhanced trade preferences, i.e. the full removal of tariffs on essentially the same products as those covered by GSP. MEPs had thus welcomed the ratification of all the major human rights conventions directly linked to the scheme, as well as the lifting of a series of reservations on many of those, such as the ICCPR or the CAT.

Pervaiz Akhtar Zafar Sultan Research Officer Secretary’s Message Since my posting in the National Assembly Secretariat, efforts are underway to enhance the productivity of the institution under the wise leadership of Speaker National Assembly, Sardar Ayaz Sadiq. One of these endeavors is to improve the quality of National Assembly of Pakistan Gazette. The Gazette was started for the first time in 90s but could not be continued after 1999. However, its online publication was resumed from September 2013 and its quality is being continuously improved. As the Gazette is one of the important medium for disseminating information about various activities taking place in National Assembly and its Secretariat, special attention is now being paid to renovating it and bringing diversity in its contents and scope. Presently, it is only published online on National Assembly’s website and being sent to Honorable MNAs and officers in soft form; however we plan to move towards the printing of Gazette. The revival of National Assembly Gazette is surely going to play a very important role in modernization of the Parliament, a drive initiated by current government.
