We have received a communication that a committee Under the Chairmanship of Hon’ble Minister of state for Commerce and industry[MoS(C&I)] has been set up for drawing up a ‘Trade and Investment Strategy Paper for Africa’, focusing specially upon the following six African countries- South Africa, Egypt, Kenya, Algeria, Nigeria and Angola .
To identify country specific trade barriers experienced while exporting to Africa region in general and those six countries mentioned above in particular and to help members to put across their view point a questionnaire has been designed and sent to us by the Department of Commerce and the same is forwarded as an attachment.
We request you to take this opportunity to bring to the notice of Government regarding issues and barriers, faced while exporting and also voice your views to better our exports to those countries by answering the questionnaire.
We request you to return the answered questionnaire in a week’s time i.e 9th Nov 2011.
We shall consolidate the information and send it to the Department of Commerce for their consideration. |
