In order to curb the construction of substandard buildings, the dire need of passing a relevant bill by the parliament to ensure quality assurance is inevitable, a deputy at the Ministry of Roads and Development said. "By approving this bill and implementing the relevant law, many of our problems, which could be attributed to poor building standards, would be solved," Pirouz Hanachi was also quoted as saying by Mehr News Agency. Quality assurance, in technical parlance, is the prevention of quality-related problems through planned and systematic activities. Quality assurance for construction has been emphasized in two of the country's five-year development plans.
