Trade unions call on parliament to bring Cyta into energy

Cyta trade unions have called on parliament to support the finance ministry’s bill to modernise the organisation and open it up to the provision of new services, including energy, ahead of discussions set for March 2.

The trade unions said not passing the bill would limit Cyta’s future prospects and its ability to compete on an equal basis, offering new and viable services.

If parliament fails to pass the bill, “society will miss the chance for more, cleaner and cheaper energy options”, the unions said.
