Slovakia to re-introduce pricing council

A so-called Pricing Council should be re-introduced by the government to monitor food prices and look into whether price increases are caused by market movements or speculators, press secretary of the Agriculture and Rural Development Ministry Jozef Sivak announced on Thursday. "I suppose that the Pricing Council should be set up within the next few weeks. We want to invite all those who participate in price setting to join the council," said Sivak.
