March 18 there is due to take place a report of the heads of major state-owned companies, the State Financial Inspection, the State Fiscal Service and line Ministers regarding the activities of these companies - the Head of Government announced at the Cabinet’s meeting on Wednesday, March 16.

During the meeting, the Government will hear the report of the State Financial Inspection, which got a commission of the Head of the Government three months ago to hold an audit of the top 20 companies, the State Fiscal Service "with a report on how much was paid in taxes " and line Ministers who, under the law, determine the policies of state-owned companies.
