Article Title:Surplus petrol supply not high on agenda

Body:
Rapporteur of the Energy Committee of Majlis here Tuesday said the government would amend the gasoline rationing and provide the motorists and motorcyclists with the commodity according to their real needs within the next two months.
Seyed Emad Hosseini told PIN that Majlis insisted on the supply of surplus gasoline and the cabinet needed to provide it.
Critics argue that the government must also add, as previously scheduled, additional quotas at higher rates for people who need their cars for their jobs and at the same time increase public transportation.
The rapporteur added the advantages of rationing outnumbered its problems, referring to reduction of air pollution, traffic, and gasoline consumption as the main benefits of the newly enforced law.
