PM to convene Council of Common Interests on Tuesday

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif will convene The Council of Common Interests (CCI) meeting on Tuesday, July 22 with view on holding a census after consultation with all provinces, Express News reported.

The CCI session will focus on revising previous energy policies, including an amendment in the 1992 Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) that had been previously opposed at the provincial level, particularly Punjab.
