The National Emergency Management Committee (CNSU) proposes the extension of the alert state by 30 days from August 16, and a government decision in that respect will be submitted for approval to a government sitting, Head of the Emergency Management Department Raed Arafat said on Friday.
He made this clarification at the request of the prime minister, who asked him if the draft decision on the extension of the state of alert is ready for debate and approval.
Arafat added that the decision will contain "minimal changes" without "additional restrictions".
The prime minister said the decision on the extension of the alert state will be published today in the Official Journal.
