Happy to see a slight reduction in power costs. That will be welcome news to Private Sector and general consumers. Cost of living pressures on families are too high so any relief is welcome.

We believe the local content discussion needs to have the backing of 🇸🇧Gov though: • A dedicated Local content policy • Passing of the Building Code Legislation • Working closely with our Donor Agencies & Mulilateral Partners to ensure genuine participation.
