The PC invited Expressions of Interests (�EOIs�) from interested parties on February 17, 2005. The Parties submitting EOIs were requested to submit and Statements of Qualifications (�SoQs�) by April 30, 2005 whereby eleven parties submitted SoQs to the Privatisation Commission. Six parties were pre-qualified to continue to the next stage of the privatisation process. As of August 2006 three pre-qualified parties were ready to proceed for the bidding. However, the privatisation process is being reviewed in the light of the supreme Court's judgment in the Pakistan Steel Mills case.
