IPOH: The cabinet has set up a committee to study all aspects of power supply, said Second Finance Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Husni Hanadzlah.
He added that the committee would also look into the IPP issue.
Ahmad Husni is in the committee with Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop and Energy, Green Technology and Water Minister Datuk Seri Peter Chin Fah Kui.
“The committee will study various aspects (of power supply) and not just the IPP problem ... among them (production) costs and (requirements for) the future because there are IPPs whose concession is due to end in 2014 and 2015,” he told reporters Sunday after opening the Rukun Tetangga beat base for Kampung Tengku Hussin.
He was commenting on a statement by Gua Musang MP Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah who suggested that the government set up a royal commission of inquiry to IPP concessions.
IPPs are said to be reaping huge profits supplying power to Tenaga Nasional Berhad.
Ahmad Husni said the committee would also look at the question of subsidies and present a report to the cabinet as soon as possible although no deadline had been set.
“We have not been given any deadline for submitting the report, but what must be stressed here is that it will give priority to the interests of the people,” he said. - Bernama.
