The Iodised Salt Bill, 2021 was passed in Parliament on Monday, aiming to ensure proportionate use of iodine in salt and regulate the salt market in the country.
The Bill was passed by voice vote when Industries Minister Nurul Majid Humayun Mahmud placed it.
The proposed Bill will be enacted through annulling previous ‘Iodine Deficiency Disease Prevention Act-1989’.
Under the proposed law, a 14-member national salt committee, headed by the Industries Secretary as its chairman, will be formed to oversee production, processing, refining, storage, transportation and marketing of salt, ensuring iodine use in salt, supply of iodine to the salt factories, regulating salt import, as well as to place recommendations over salt management policy.
