The Company, which has been taken to task in recent times because of high bills, has been at pains to point out there are a number of reasons for this, including increased usage by some residential customers, the cost of fuel and the devaluation of the Jamaican dollar. In response to the general complaints, the OUR will now conduct an audit of JPS\u2019 operations. \u201cWe welcome the Minister\u2019s call for an audit and stand ready to assist in this process. This can only help to bring clarity and transparency to the JPS operations and how we serve our customers,\u201d said JPS Senior Vice President, Ramsay McDonald. Members of the JPS executive leadership team will be meeting with Cabinet on Monday June 22, and will be providing the OUR with any requested data. In the meantime, JPS continues to assist customers with their queries, and remains dedicated to serving the public with the highest level of service<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright  wp-image-9680\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.carilec.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JPSmediafooter.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"843\" height=\"98\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carilec.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JPSmediafooter.png 791w, https:\/\/carilec.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JPSmediafooter-600x70.png 600w, https:\/\/carilec.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JPSmediafooter-300x35.png 300w, https:\/\/carilec.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JPSmediafooter-768x89.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 843px) 100vw, 843px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; June 16, 2020 JPS has announced that it welcomes the audit to be conducted by the Office of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":165,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12868","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"featured_image":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.svg","month_date":"Jun","day_date":"17","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12868","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/users\/165"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12868"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12868\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12868"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12868"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carilec.org\/api\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12868"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
