ISLAMABAD:
The government has appointed six more members on the board of Privatisation Commission (PC) that is expected to fast-track the privatisation drive launched by the government.
The new members are Aziz Nishtar, Salman Burney, Khurram Schehzad, Zafar Khan, Nauman Dar and Ali Habib, said a notification issued by the Ministry of Finance and Privatisation here on Friday. After coming to power last year, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif had reconstituted the PC board and appointed six members. Muhammad Zubair, a key member of the PML-N election manifesto committee, is the chairman of the board.
Responsibility of ensuring transparency and earning maximum gains for the state has been given to the board. The government has agreed with the International Monetary Fund that it will privatise 32 state enterprises during its tenure.
