Last week, the price on privatization vouchers remained without changes, with purchases was running for five manat and sales for six manat. President Ilham Aliyev's decree on additional measures to ensure the use of state privatization vouchers prolonged the validity period until Jan. 1, 2011. This decision was made as roughly 80 percent of the vouchers were still in circulation.
