MARVIN GONZALES, Arouca/Lopinot MP and former public utilities minister, wants to know how the government will fund T&TEC, after its scrapping of the the report by the Regulated Industries Commission (RIC) which sets rates for an affordable yet realistic electricity rate after widespread public consultations.

He was addressing a briefing at the Opposition Leader’s office in Port of Spain on August 6.

Gonzales asked how T&TEC would be funded including its current $7 billion debt to state-run gas supplier the National Gas Company (NGC).
