Tariff Review Tariff Application Report and Position Paper

From 12pm to 1pm Monday to Friday until 26 March 2010

The Government’s concern about the high cost of electricity has led to the Utilities Regulatory Authority (URA) undertaking a full review of the level and structure of tariffs for all concession areas. Current concession agreement permits the Government to review and reset tariffs for cause and for the simple reason of passage of time.

The URA has put out two sets of papers, Tariff Application Report and Position Paper, to the public for information and consultation.
