Prices are skyrocketing because the Law on Interim Measures to Restrict Basic Products, adopted by Parliament a month ago, is still inapplicable because there is no bylaw. The Ministry of Economic Development and Tourism says that it has prepared a draft decision which envisages limiting margins in wholesale and retail stores, for oil, flour, salt and sugar, which the Government will soon decide on. Daily price increases confirm that the trade lobby is powerful, Ines Mrdovic of the Action for Social Justice points out.
The Ministry of Economic Development has announced that the bylaw is ready and that it will be adopted soon.
