The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.elfagr.org\/2629398\">local press had picked up<\/a> an announcement by Surko\u0161 last week that a meeting to discuss the automotive industry with EU officials was in the cards. <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2017\/05\/02\/automotive-directive-violates-egypts-european-ftas-surkos\/\">Surko\u0161 had said last month<\/a> that the bill, which gives incentives to Egyptian car assemblers who go further up the value chain into manufacturing, would violate the terms of Egypt\u2019s trade agreements with the EU. European car makers and local importers of their goods had complained to the European Commission and have spearheaded an effort to derail the bill in the House of Representatives. The Trade and Industry Ministry has been trying to push the legislation along by <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2017\/06\/12\/trade-and-industry-ministry-form-committee-to-resolve-issues-with-the-automotive-directive\/\">recently forming a committee<\/a> to look into a compromise that would leave both parties happy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other topics we expect would have been on the agenda include the Exporters Registry<\/strong>, which the <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2016\/09\/07\/eu-will-continue-to-push-egypt-to-end-exporters-registry\/\">EU had said it would pressure Egypt to abandon<\/a>. The registry places additional quality control measures for companies looking to export to Egypt. Kabil\u2019s meeting with the EU has yet to be rescheduled.<\/p>\n<p>News that Kabil was postponing his trip came as<strong> word emerged that the European Union will <\/strong><strong>raise its ceiling on aid to Egypt to EUR 600 mn from EUR 450 mn.<\/strong> The decision came during negotiations for a new three-year EU-Egypt Partnership framework agreement, the head of the Investment and International Cooperation Ministry's Egyptian-EU partnership unit, Gamal Bayoumi, tells <a href=\"http:\/\/www.egyptindependent.com\/eu-raises-aid-egypt\/\">Al Masry Al Youm<\/a>. He added that it was likely that the aid be increased to EUR 660 mn \u201cin the near future.\u201d We could actually expect the aid to be disbursed as one lump sum payment, according to Bayoumi. We <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2017\/03\/08\/strategic-partnership-framework-talks-between-egypt-eu-move-forward\/\">noted back in March<\/a> that the government was making headway in setting a strategic partnership framework after the prior agreement expired last year.
