The government Tuesday submitted to the Grand National Assembly of Turkey (TBMM) a draft law on a reduction of the fee that Turkish expats are required to pay for exemption from military service.According to the draft law, Turkish citizens who reside outside Turkey and have worked for at least three consecutive years will have the option to pay 1,000 euros instead of the current 6,000 euro fee to be exempt from the mandatory military service.As part of the AK Party's election campaign and the government's 2016 action plan, the draft also envisages a 100 percent increase in the daily allowance of military students, non-commissioned officers, and privates. Another change that the draft foresees is the redesign of identity cards, whereas article 25 of the draft law involves the recruitment of an extra 12,500 teachers in the following year.
