  • EU Grants GSP Plus Status to Pakistan
    EU grants GSP Plus status to Pakistan LAHORE: Punjab Governor Chaudhry Sarwar on Thursday urged the textile sector to take full advantage of the Generalised System Preferences (GSP) Plus status. He was addressing the All Pakistan Textile Mills Association (Aptma) in Lahore from Brussels where 406 EU parliamentarians voted in favour of Pakistan while 182 votes were cast against the granting of GSP Plus to Pakistan. Pakistan only needed 381 votes or simple majority to qualify for this status. http://www.SmartPDFConverter.comOnly 580 members out of the 780 member EU parliamentarianshttp://www.SmartPDFConverter.com exercised their right to vote on granting GSP plus status to Pakistan and nine other countries. ³I urge the textile sector to take full advantage of this opportunity,´ said Sarwar while congratulating the nation, APTMA and all textile stakeholders. He attributed the success to the untiring efforts of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, Pakistan¶s Ambassador to the EU Munawar Bhatti, leaders of different parties in the EU parliament, particularly David Martin of S and D Group and Christopher Caspier of EU Peoples Party. Sources in Brussels told The News that securing GSP plus status required immense lobbying and persuasion on the part of Governor Punjab Muhammad Sarwar as India was discreetly lobbying against Pakistan. ³The Punjab governor had been stationed in Brussels for the last five days to use his clout as former British Member of Parliament to push the vote in Pakistan¶s favour,´ the sources added. The EU parliament has to formally approve the GSP plus status that EU Commission approved to be granted to a number of countries including Pakistan.
