Addressing the participants K. Massimov reminded of the Presidential instruction to draft appropriate documents for establishment of a single economic space since January 1, 2012.

According to him, national monopolies regulation must be unified across the perimeter. "We have already set to negotiations in this direction. A special commission headed by Umirzak Shukeyev, first Vice Prime Minister, has been established", he said.

"This moment must be thoroughly considered. We must observe the situation with tariffs in the Russian Federation in order to provide competitive environment, since the unification process will cover many tariffs", the Head of the Government said.
