December 15, Colombo (LNW): The Public Utilities Commission of Sri Lanka (PUCSL) will begin collecting public opinions on the proposed revision of electricity tariffs starting tomorrow, with the consultation period running until January 08, January 2025.

The Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) had initially recommended maintaining the current electricity tariff rates for the first half of 2025.

In response, the PUCSL has crafted a draft counterproposal for review, encouraging members of the public to express their views and contribute to the decision-making process.

To facilitate public participation, the PUCSL has provided several avenues for individuals to submit their feedback.

Members of the public can email their comments to [email protected] or send messages via WhatsApp to 076 427 10 30.

Additionally, they are welcome to visit the PUCSL office in Colombo, or they can access designated feedback submission points at regional offices across the country.

It is important to hear from a wide range of stakeholders to ensure the proposed changes are fair, reasonable, and aligned with the public interest, the Commission emphasised.
