PN says power-cut compensation process remains unopened

The Nationalist Party said families and businesses affected by prolonged July power cuts had still not received compensation and could not yet apply because forms had not been published. It argued that small businesses lost sales, stock and working time while continuing to pay wages, rent and bills. The PN repeated its proposal for automatic payments based on transparent factors such as outage duration, damaged equipment, spoiled goods and forced closure. Government had indicated claims would apply to interruptions lasting more than six hours.
