    A government source said the details of the proposed changes to the tax system would be hammered
    out before the second reading of the Duma, the lower house of parliament.

    The Russian government, the Ministry of Finance, Nonickel and major fertilizer producers declined to comment

    Major steel producers also declined to comment, but Severstal said "constructive dialogue continues, positions are being harmonized and mutually acceptable solutions have been worked out"
