MB Tan Sri Abdul Khalid said the state would disclose and explain the mechanism of the restructuring after the scheme was completed. Currently, consumers have to pay 58 sen per cubic metre for the first 20 cubic metres of water, RM1.03 per cubic metre for the use of between 20 cubic metres and 35 cubic metres, and RM2 per cubic metre if the amount exceeds 35 cubic metres.
From June 1, consumers will be charged RM1.03 or RM2 per cubic metre, depending on the amount used that exceeds their free water allocation. The old pricing mechanism would be maintained to prevent consumers wasting water, he said after the opening of the 12th Selangor legislative assembly yesterday.
He said the state government would also introduce the concept of a five-day work week but with seven-day service for consumers.
