The decision was made based on a cabinet memorandum produce by the Prime Minister and the memorandum clearly stated the 150 vehicles (50 Ambulances / 50 Water Bowser / 50 Double Cabs) must be imported to the country. The cabinet memorandum also produced an alternative for MPs who have taken a hit from the government’s decision to suspend issuing duty-free permits to import vehicles. Accordingly, as a solution to the issue, a decision was made to import 399 vehicles under Rs. The cabinet decision reached on Monday (24) only speaks of suspending imports and does not in any way confirm that these imports will be canceled. Interestingly, the decision on suspending the imports will only realize if the suppliers agree to the said decision.
