Therefore, the PUCSL has ordered both CEB and LECO to urge consumers to settle their bills including the February bill within a three month period.
The Chairman of the PUCSL Janaka Ratnayake told Times Online that they have instructed the CEB to charge extra for delays of bill payments.
Former Chairman of SriLankan Airlines, Nishantha Wickramasinghe, arrested on allegation of corruption by the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption (CIABOC) has been remanded until July 1 by the Colombo Magistrate court.
