The report reveals that lifting the restrictions on economic activity in Area C could have a large positive impact on Palestinian GDP, public finances, and employment prospects. Among other things, access to economic activity in Area C is expected to be a key prerequisite for building a sustainable Palestinian economy. However, full potential of the Area C could be materialized only if other restrictions on free movement of goods, laborWorld Bank e-Library.West BankEconomic conditionsGaza StripEconomic conditionsPalestineEconomic conditionsPalestineEconomic policy330.95695/3Niksic Orhan1567777Nasser EddinNur Cali MassimilianoNaylor DebraWorld Bank.DLCDLCDLCBOOK9910786520003321West Bank and Gaza3839418UNINA
