Households on islands other than the capital Male’ will not have to pay increased electricity tariffs until the subsidy scheme has been approved for the entire nation, the government has said.
The taskforce appointed by the President to assist the National Social Protection Agency (NSPA) in giving subsidies has decided that a nationwide subsidy policy will be formulated by September this year.
The National Social Protection Agency (NSPA) will determine which households in the are eligible to receive electricity subsidy before September this year, the government said.
The increment charged in the electricity bills of island households by the provincial utilities companies since April will be deducted from the next electricity bills.
