WHILE THE INITIAL steps will be recommended by the task force over the next few months, it will have a longer window to firm up the other proposals to be implemented over years.
The broader set of reforms of factors of production will extend across sectors, and cover both manufacturing and services. These would aim at improving investment efficiency, reducing costs of businesses, and promoting ease of doing business.
The Task Force will submit its initial report in a time-bound manner to the Prime Minister's Office (PMO), which will take the final call on the recommendations, sources said. "The Task Force will identify issues and push through various government departments to get them done," a senior official said.
