The final verdict issued by the Tehran courts on the annulment of the decision dated 2023/01/10 by the Supreme Supervisory Council of the Iran Chamber of Commerce conveys a message of safeguarding the independence of the Chamber's board of representatives as the private sector's parliament against the extralegal oversight (interference) of the Supreme Council.
