Hopefully government corruption will be reduced in this sham of a "business":
Electricity Pact may lead to job losses
The executive vice president of the Association of Industries of the Dominican Republic (AIRD), Circe Almanzar says that the Electricity Pact, which is now in the hands of the President of the Republic to sign, will come at a political cost for the government as some institutions in the sector will be eliminated while others will be transformed.
In an interview on the television program D’Agenda, transmitted by Telesistema, Circe Almánzar said the role of the Dominican Public Electricity Corporation (CDEEE) will totally change when the Pact comes into operation and several of its current functions will be eliminated.
She also said that among the organizations that would disappear are the Unit of Rural and Suburban Electrification (UERS) and the National Commission of Energy Policies. The role of the former would pass to the electricity distribution companies.
She added that in respect to the National Energy Commission, the Ministry of Energy and Mines could take over that role, as there are too many institutions in the sector.
She stated that there would be unified boards although the three distributors would remain as public companies.
She said that as happened in the transport sector, there are too many institutions with a duplication of functions in the energy area.
