The Ministry of Industry and Trade has affirmed the continued availability of government-subsidised flour products in local markets.
It gave assurance that consumer needs are being met and market stability maintained amid the exceptional circumstances facing the region.
In a statement, the Ministry called on all automated and traditional bakeries to uphold their national responsibilities by ensuring the uninterrupted supply of subsidised flour products to consumers without price increases.
It stressed the importance of adhering to the provisions of Resolution No. (125) of 2012, which regulates the handling and distribution of subsidised flour.
Warning
The Ministry warned against any attempts to manipulate prices, withhold products from consumers, or misuse government-subsidised flour, emphasising that such practices constitute legal violations subject to penalties.
It added that monitoring and inspection campaigns will be intensified to ensure full compliance with relevant regulations and decisions, with necessary legal action to be taken against any establishment found in breach.
