New Electricity Bill Tariff Revision in 2024, Confirms Minister Wijesekara

Date:

Minister of Power and Energy, Kanchana Wijesekara, confirmed that the anticipated presentation of the Electricity Bill in Parliament on December 13th has been postponed until January 2024. The delay stems from the detection of 42 printing errors within the gazetted Bill, as disclosed by the Ministry.

Assuring corrective measures, Minister Wijesekara mentioned that these errors are slated for review by the Attorney General’s office to ensure accuracy and coherence within the proposed legislation.

In parallel, Minister Wijesekara also revealed plans for a forthcoming electricity tariff revision scheduled for implementation in January 2024. This announcement hints at potential adjustments in energy costs, although specific details regarding the proposed changes remain undisclosed at this stage.
