The government has given permission for
\nimporting four crore eggs to four companies in order to keep the price of
\nsuch item under control.<\/p>\n
Talking to BSS today, Commerce Ministry Senior Secretary Tapan Kanti Ghosh
\nsaid each of the four companies have been initially given permission for
\nimporting one crore pieces of eggs thus totaling the number to four crore
\neggs. These four companies are Meem Enterprise, Prime Energy Importers and
\nSuppliers, Tiger Trading and Arnob Trading Limited.<\/p>\n
He said these four companies have been asked to import eggs as soon as
\npossible. “Since they will have to import eggs through opening up LCs, it may
\ntake some time for them,” he added.<\/p>\n
Tapan said it was also not fixed from which country they would have to import
\neggs as the importers would be able to choose the sourcing country. “But, the
\nprice of imported eggs has been fixed at Taka 12 per piece in line with the
\nfresh fixation of egg price. So, the price of imported eggs won’t be more
\nthan Taka 12 per piece,” he added.<\/p>\n
The Senior Commerce Secretary said four fresh conditions have also been given
\nfor importing eggs. These are: Eggs should have to be imported from avian
\ninfluenza free or bird-flue free country, avian influenza free or bird-flu
\nvirus free or harmful bacteria free certificate, given by the concerned
\nauthority of the government of the exporting country, should have to be
\nsubmitted by the importer while importing each consignment of eggs, no
\nprohibited materials could be imported alongside eggs while the importers
\nshould have to comply with the existing rules and regulations of the
\ngovernment.<\/p>\n
According to the Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock, there is a demand for
\nfour crore eggs per day in the country while the import of above mentioned
\nquantity of eggs would meet up the demand for eggs of one day in the country.<\/p>\n
Tapan, however, said that if necessary, the government would allow import of
\nmore eggs while decision in this regard would be taken later based on the
\nsupply and price situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
