Finance Ministry adviser Fathy Shaaban told Hona Al Asema this is not a new levy and it has already been in place since 1978, noting that the amendments only seek to enforce payment of the tax (<u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SUD32e_8x-o\">watch, runtime: 10:22<\/a><\/u>). We have more on the amendments in the Speed Round below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly\u2019s planned address to the House of Representatives today took up time on the airwaves. <\/strong>MP Mohamed Badrawy told Masaa DMC\u2019s Eman Al Hosary that a House committee will be formed to review the plan within 10 days. Badrawy added that the House will request that the government provide a detailed plan on how it will implement its social welfare provisions every three months (<u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=BF_WIgxxVSs\">watch, runtime: 3:47<\/a><\/u>).

Perhaps on if the most interesting aspects of the meeting was the suggestion that developers could sell social housing to non-Egyptian residents, Al Ahly for Real Estate Development chairman Hussein Sabbour tells Hona Al Asema in a call in. If implemented, foreigners would be able to acquire homes at a cost of around USD 400k and receive a five-year residence permit. He said such move his will generate foreign currency and dismissed the notion that it would raise real estate prices for Egyptians (<u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WO1TgjNeOE0\">watch, runtime: 13:53<\/a><\/u>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>The debate on raising med prices is back and has taken center stage on the airwaves (or: What\u2019s a bit of hyperbole among friends). <\/strong>Masaa DMC\u2019s Eman Al Hosary said that some 10k pharmacies are facing the threat of closure due to their low profit margin. Pharmacists syndicate member George Attallah said that 50% of Egypt\u2019s pharmacies, particularly those in rural areas, make less than EGP 1,000 in sales daily with a profit margin of only EGP 150-200 (<u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=VQY912RCcLQ\">watch, runtime: 7:36<\/a><\/u>).
