The debate on offering elderly Bahrainis a flat 50 per cent discount on all government fees continues, with a proposal by Shura Council Chairman Ali Saleh Al Saleh to carry on with the discussions.
The upper chamber of the National Assembly was yesterday, during its weekly session, set to vote on its own version of amendments to the 2009 Elderly Rights Law which suggested that the Cabinet determine the percentage of discounts, or outright exemptions.
