I met them when I was Foreign Minister. I am well aware of the concerns, there is also an issue of unfair competition particularly when it is used for commercial purposes. I understand when it is for private use, but when it is for commercial purposes it is something that is not allowed.

They have had a meeting with both the Minister of Commerce and the Minister of Finance, they have had a meeting with the Deputy Minister to the President at the Presidential Palace.

Instructions have been given so that all those checks are always done within the framework of the regulation and what is allowed within the Green Line Regulation."
