CEB Engineers’ Union calls off strike temporarily

 

The work to rule strike which was launched by the Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) Engineers’ Union was temporarily called off today.

The CEB Engineers’ Union President Athula Wanniarachchi said that the decision was made after the Public Utility Commission agreed to comply with the low cost 20 year power supply plan.

On Monday Wanniarachchi said that the union will consider CEB’s requests and make a decision today.

Referring to the CEB he said, ‘We demand that they withdraw their plan and accept ours. We don’t want to inconvenience the public, but as you can see, we can’t keep operating power plants that do not have the necessary approval’.

However he added that the action plan to suspend the power supply from the Norochcholi Power plant at 4 p.m. was also called off by the trade unions.
