According to the letter, the ministry will examine the credit default records as well as the updated status of tax, VAT, and duty payments for all elected executive committee members of REHAB for the specified term.
The trade organisation has been asked to send the required documents within the stipulated time.
Copies of the letter have also been forwarded for notification to the Private Secretary (PS) to the Commerce Minister, the PS to the Commerce Secretary, and the office of the Director General of Commerce Organisations.
