The document will now be presented to President Abdel Fattah El Sisi, who is widely expected to send it to the board running the upcoming national dialogue for further debate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It\u2019s not clear how much the document has changed: <\/strong>The government held weeks of consultations with economic experts and various industry players before putting the policy up for discussion at its <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/06c4e072-4011-4127-a6c3-c014b13880aa\">three-day conference<\/a> on the future of the Egyptian economy in October.

The cabinet statement doesn\u2019t specify what amendments have since been made.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Or whether this version is final: <\/strong>The policy is set to be the topic of \u201cthe lion\u2019s share\u201d of debates by the national dialogue\u2019s economic subcommittee, subcommittee rapporteur Rep. Ayman Mehasseb said yesterday. \u201cMany\u201d opposition members want the document put up for a vote in a public referendum, said Senator Mahmoud Sami, assistant subcommittee rapporteur and member of the Egyptian Socialist Democratic Party. The national dialogue is slated to kick off within weeks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What state ownership policy document? <\/strong>Launched <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/158188ff-65a9-4146-adc1-5f53c1a3f6e5\">by the Madbouly government in May<\/a> as part of a wider plan to restructure the economy in favor of the private sector, the policy lays out a roadmap for large-scale privatization. The strategy envisions more than doubling the private sector\u2019s role in the economy to 65% over the next three years, and attracting USD 40 bn in private investment by 2026.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How would it work? <\/strong>A <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/0894c99e-e18e-473e-a869-64812c50988b\">draft of the document<\/a> obtained by local media when it was first launched suggests the government intends to fully withdraw from as many as 79 industries and stage partial exits from others, while maintaining its presence in certain strategic sectors.
