SUPPLY CHARGE TO RETURN
Consumer Protection has informed us that the Minister of Commerce, Dr Tony Buti, is going to change the regulations to include supply charges as one of the permitted charges. His reasoning is that a clear and controllable charge is preferred to park operators trying to find other ways to recoup the income they previously had. The regulation will not be back dated and previous charges between 31 January and the new date will remain unlawful.
More information will be given as it becomes available.
