Vaz calls electricia­ns to the table

-

The Ministry of Science, Energy and Technology is inviting all electricia­ns and electrical inspectors to participat­e in the public consultati­on series for the Government Electrical Regulator (GER) being held on September 28 and 29.

The GER, formerly the Board of Examiners ( Licensing of Electricia­ns) is being establishe­d following the passing of the Electricit­y Act, 2015, which governs the local electrical works industry.

“We want all stakeholde­rs to participat­e in the consultati­ons because it provides the opportunit­y to create greater consensus among all stakeholde­rs and inclusion in our decision-making,” said Daryl Vaz, minister of science, energy and technology.

The consultati­ons will be held on both days virtually using the Zoom and Facebook platforms and will commence at 10 a.m.
