We have sent to report on the sector, to all of the ministries. Meanwhile, we have visited Zafer Çağlayan, the Minister of Economy, and Cevdet Yılmaz, the Minister of Development, as well as related directorates and personally communicated the issue to them. We have expressed the sector and the sector’s contributions, wherever we are. During this period, the sector has been covered within investment incentives.
