May 13, 2020: Prime Minister Imran Khan says the government will continue to implement conventions and enhance its engagement with EU partners to improve the socio-economic conditions of the people.

He was chairing a briefing in Islamabad yesterday to review progress on the implementation status of GSP Plus related conventions.

The Prime Minister said the twenty-seven UN conventions associated with the GSP Plus status are fully in consonance with Pakistan's constitutional obligations.

He appreciated the EU's decision for the continuation of GSP plus status to Pakistan, which contributed towards the enhancement of the country's exports and further strengthening of ties with EU member countries.

He said every possible effort will be made to safeguard and protect vulnerable segments of society.

The Prime Minister directed Advisor on Climate Change to expedite the formulation of national policy related to waste management in consultation with provincial governments.
