(MENAFN- AzerNews) A meeting was held with representatives of Globus and Frunze
hypermarket chains, Azernews reports, citing 24.kg.
The parties discussed the requirements of the presidential
decree on a ban on the use and sale of plastic film bags in the
resort and recreational zone of Issyk-Kul region. It will come into
force on June 21, 2023.
"Entrepreneurs reported that work is underway to replace bags
made of polymer film with paper and textile ones," the report
says.
Earlier, Sadyr Japarov signed a decree on urgent measures to
preserve the ecology of Issyk-Kul lake. The relevant committee of
the Parliament approved in the second reading the draft law on
limiting the circulation of plastic film bags in the territory of
the Kyrgyz Republic.
Some time later, at a meeting of the Committee on Budget,
Economic and Fiscal Policy of the Parliament, deputy Dastan
Bekeshev drew the attention of officials to the fact that the
decree signed by the head of state was not implemented. The Cabinet
of Ministers said that the ban would be introduced in stages.
