A major factor contributing to the success of zone
programmes is the autonomy and effectiveness of the body
charged with overseeing zone operations
Sufficient autonomy of the zone authority over staffing, budgets,
spending and policy making should be ensured and clearly stated in
the law;
An independent board composed of representatives of all key
involved ministries and the private sector should be formed, thereby
ensuring customer focus;
An example of this is Egypt's SEZ regime; the zone is self-
governed through an independent authority with even greater
authority granted to the Board of Directors. The board is composed of
government and private sector representatives.
