Pakistan: Punjab’s Minister for Industries & Trade Mian Aslam Iqbal says that the provincial government has lifted a ban on the cement industry after 12 years. He made the statement following a meeting reviewing investment in the cement sector and installation of new plants in the province, according to the Business Recorder newspaper. He also expressed regret that obtaining no objection certificates (NOC) for new projects had taken too long and that the local government has set up a special section of its industries department to hasten the process.
