Type of Justification: Advice of INTERNAL government advisory committee or group, Anecdotal Evidence (e.g. social or traditional media with limited evidence base), Perception of an increased threat
Source of Evidence or Justification: National – government
Evidence/Justification: Given that Iran has a multiple sub-scaled jurisdiction system, developing a fully authorized council to promptly address, and directly announce the policies and regulate over their implementations was highly suggested by national advisory councils.
