Louis Ng on Public Utilities (Amendment) Bill
The Bill will improve water efficiency requirements, increase PUB’s administrative effectiveness and ensure a consistent application of taxes to private suppliers, said MP Louis Ng. Speaking in Parliament on Thursday (Aug 3), he sought clarifications on the waterborne tax (WBT). He wanted to know what changes will be made to the imposition and composition of WBT. Turning to PUB's power on the relocation of water installations, Mr Ng wanted to know if PUB will make payment to those who transfer ownership of water installations to it and how the quantum of payment will be determined. On water efficiency requirements, Mr Ng asked if more changes will be made to the current best practices guidelines for the industry and if these requirements will take into account the technology available to maintain water efficiency.
