Baku/05.04.22/Turan: On April 5, President Ilham Aliyev issued a decree on changes to the regulation on the Tariff Council. According to them, the Tariff Council (TC) is deprived of the status of an executive body.
In the new version of the Regulations, the TC is a collegial body that regulates prices (tariffs) in areas where state regulation is carried out: payment for services, fees, except for cases established by the president.
The TC will operate on a voluntary basis, and employees of its secretariat will not be considered civil servants. The secretariat will have a seal, stamps and forms without a coat of arms. Due to the abolition of the Ministry of Taxes, the former Deputy Minister of Taxes was excluded from the members of the TC.
The Customs Union was established on December 26, 2005 as a collegial executive body that regulates state-regulated prices (tariffs).
The management of the Customs Union was entrusted to the Minister of Economy.—06B-
