Monday, April 28, 2014. AARON HUMES Reporting: Belizeans will pay about seven cents more for water, as the decision of the Public Utilities Commission (PUC).

An independent expert has been appointed and his report was recently submitted.

The PUC has now decided to up its rate of increase to 6.9% for all consumers except in Caye Caulker. the Public Utilities Commission has planeed a press briefing for Tuesday afternoon at 2 pm in Belize City.
