This time we are putting things right, the contracts are being reviewed. And in the review, they must come up with a regulation because this time if someone does not follow the correct way he should be punished. We do not want such things to happen again. So the committee appointed to review the draft definitely they when they finish they will be put in line with the government plan”.
