The abuse of the position of a subject of natural monopoly is suppressed

Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) - The Antimonopoly Committee conducts a constant study of appeals regarding the illegality of actions on the part of natural monopolies. As the practice of studying such appeals by the Committee and its territorial administrations shows, natural monopolies, being sole providers of services and rashly guided by the law, charge unreasonable amounts of debt to consumers. This is reported by the Antimonopoly Committee Information Service.

The Antimonopoly Committee of the Republic of Uzbekistan studied the appeal of KOMBEK LLC regarding the accrual of unjustified debt for the consumption of electrical energy from the Toshkent Huddiy Elektar Tarmoқlari JSC.

In the course of a detailed study of the situation by the staff of the Antimonopoly Committee, it was revealed that despite the fact that the products, manufactured by KOMBEK, is not included in the list specified in the appendix to the Presidential decree of the Republic of Uzbekistan on rational use of energy resources, Toshkent Hududy Elektar Taromulyari unreasonably accrued debt in the amount of 94.2 million soums.

According to the results of the study, the unreasonably accrued amount of 94.2 million soums was recalculated in favor of KOMBEK LLC and, thus, the rights of the consumer of natural monopoly services were protected.
