Chairing the meeting to review the long-term auto policy prepared by the Ministry of Industries and Production in consultation with all stakeholders the prime minister said the new policy would be presented to the Economic Coordination Committee of the Cabinet (ECC) for its formal approval in January 2007. The Engineering Development Board (EDB) a subsidiary of the ministry of industries had prepared a draft policy envisaging concessions for attracting new players in the auto manufacturing sector and providing an adequate protection to the existing manufacturers. The prime minister said the government attaches great importance to the auto industry as it was a key driver of economic growth and a creator of jobs and employment in the country. Mr Aziz said the government was keen that apart from meeting the growing local demand for autos the auto industry should get into the export of auto parts which was a niche business requiring specialisation.
