His words, "That record is the highest collected by the command this year so far, and we are optimistic about surpassing it before the end of the year, as positive signs indicate the result of constant review and evaluation of our revenue collection mechanism."
Speaking further, Daniyan said the dispute resolution committee's strategic approach in handling trade disputes has helped sustain the two-hour record-breaking clearance time for compliant RoRo cargoes.
He appealed to stakeholders on the need for compliance and to take advantage of products put in place by the Comptroller General of Customs (CGC).
