As well, whether any billing errors were detected while reviewing customer inquiries. Newfoundland Power should also advise as to additional measures that it plans to take: i) to provide customers flexibility in the payment of increased billings and ii) to provide enhanced communication to customers in relation to this matter. The power utility has until March 21st to report back to the PUB.
