Tuesday, 11 February 2014
Commerce Minister Tofail Ahmed on Tuesday said all-out efforts are on to fulfil all the US conditions to get back the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) facility within the next two months. Bangladesh has three more conditions, out of 16, to fulfil to get back the GSP facility to the US market, he said responding to a supplementary question in Parliament. The remaining three conditions are appointment of 200 inspectors, permitting trade unions at export processing zones (EPZs) and addressing the allegations of torture on workers in 19 factories, according to a news agency.
