Asad Umar promises steps for award of National Finance Commission:

ISLAMABAD: Minister for Finance, Revenue, and Economic Affairs Asad Umer Tuesday told Senate that the
government would take steps to complete the process of award of National Finance
Commission (NFC).
Speaking at the floor of the Senate here, he said if the government would decide to seek the help of International Monetary Fund (IMF), it would not be for the first time as earlier 12
times earlier governments took loans from the international financial institution.
He said, the financial situation of the country would be put before the parliament, cabinet
and the prime minister. Senator Raza Rabbani said. The Senate has in the past regularly raised the issue of National Finance Commission award.
