The law, which could go into effect during FY2018-19, would set limits on the amount of cash that government agencies can receive or pay in a single transaction. A suggestion currently under study sets a ceiling of EGP 20,000 per transaction, according to the sources. The government has been taking steps to gradually decrease the rate of cash transactions, based on a number of resolutions adopted during a <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2017\/06\/04\/govt-takes-huge-step-forward-on-mobile-payments-policy\/\">National Payments Council meeting last year<\/a>, which included drafting legislation to govern non-cash payments and transactions, developing a strategy for e-governance, and making <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2017\/11\/29\/what-were-tracking-on-29-november-2017\/\">e-payment options available<\/a> to public sector employees.

Some suggested including exceptions for land in new urban communities, but the committee ultimately did not reach consensus on the issue. It remains unclear why the committee is currently discussing the legislation, after having <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2018\/02\/22\/housing-committee-will-not-approve-three-month-legislation-on-settling-building-violations\/\">agreed in February<\/a> that it cannot pass without amendments to the Unified Building Code.
