The dissatisfaction with the implementation of measures of state support to the industry expressed the representatives of the mining industry at the meeting of the mining and metallurgical industries in the Presidium of the National Chamber of Entrepreneurs of Kazakhstan.

"The National Chamber of entrepreneurs on regular basis, monitors the implementation of the Plan through a survey of businesses in the field. This gives a more objective picture of its implementation. As you know, the "industry" plan contains 32 actions in the field of metallurgy. 21 of them are in the field of steel production and 11 for non-ferrous metallurgy. By the condition on 16th of June 2015 out of the 32 planned activities were executed 22, 10 are at the stage of execution ", - said the head of the Secretariat.
