The draft new Fire Regulation was reviewed in detail.

TÜROB President Müberra Eresin attended the "Informational Meeting on the Regulation on the Protection of Buildings from Fire," held in cooperation with the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, the Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Türkiye (TOBB), and the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce (İTO), and hosted by İTO.

Attending the meeting were TÜROB Secretary General İsmail Taşdemir, Board Members Nuri Kalyoncu and Ayhan Hüzmeli, and Advisor to the President Armin Zerunyan, as well as members of the İTO Assembly and Professional Committees, executives of municipalities and fire department directorates, and numerous representatives of hotels and businesses.

The meeting began with an opening speech by Istanbul Chamber of Commerce Board Member and TUGEV Deputy Chairman Bahadır Yaşık. Afterward, a detailed presentation on the regulation was given by Murat Bayram, Deputy Director General of Professional Services at the Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, and participants' questions were answered.

Speaking at the meeting, TÜROB President Müberra Eresin said the following: "First of all, I thank the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce for hosting the meeting. Fire safety is an indispensable and extremely important issue for our sector. We have submitted our views on the new regulation to our Ministry in writing. It is of great importance that this regulation be applicable, and that the competent authorities not engage in practices outside the provisions of the regulation. Our expectation is that articles in the current regulation that are difficult to understand and implement, that are felt to be lacking, or that are not in line with the reality of fire, be removed and replaced with more applicable provisions."
