Deadline set for relocation of offices outside Tehran

TEHRAN, July 26 (MNA) – The administration has set a deadline of August 22 for all organizations of the executive branch of government to relocate at least 40 percent of their affiliated offices outside the capital.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad issued a directive last Wednesday ordering the organizations of the executive branch of the government to make efforts to facilitate the process of relocating government workers currently based in the capital to other cities.

The directive was ratified by the president and his ministers during a cabinet session held in Tehran.

According to the new directive, the administration has also prohibited establishing any new organizations or posts in Tehran.

The Central Bank of Iran is tasked with transferring the accounts of any office scheduled to be moved outside Tehran.
