Only these 10 companies regularly report on their work, he said. The rest cite internal problems, including a lack of funding and finding investors.
‘We are not hindering their activities - these are their internal issues,’ Kaseyinov said.
When asked by MPs about the possible revocation of licences, he noted that this is possible only after the licences expire.
