ECG can't pay cash as refund but... - MP

Mr. Ennin said: “The ECG cannot give cash to affected persons; it is impossible but we will get this issue resolved.”

 

Speaking on Radio Ghana’s Behind the News, Mr. Ennin said: “The ECG cannot give cash to affected persons; it is impossible but we will get this issue resolved.”

There has been huge public outcry over the over-billing of electricity consumers following a software malfunction in the ECG’s billing system.

The Parliamentary Select Committee on Mines and Energy and the energy distributor met on Friday to discuss the issue but the meeting was inconclusive.

Another meeting has been scheduled for next Tuesday.

Mr. Ennin indicated that the committee will among other things recommend that “some of the people who are involved, those who did not do their work well, we will recommend that they sanction them because it’s a serious issue.”

“On Tuesday, we will have all the answers and if they fail to give them to us, we will know what to do,” he said.
