800,000 S'porean households set to receive S$77m worth of S&CC rebates
Posted: 28 March 2013 1351 hrs
SINGAPORE: Around 800,000 Singaporean HDB households can expect to receive S$77 million worth of Service & Conservancy Charges (S&CC) rebates in 2013. These S&CC rebates were announced during Budget 2013 to help households cope with increases in the cost of living.
In total, each eligible Singaporean household will receive one to three months of S&CC rebates, depending on HDB flat type.
Eligible households will receive a letter in April with more details of the rebates they will be getting.
The S&CC rebates will be disbursed over the months of April, July and October, and will be used to offset a household's S&CC directly.
For households who pay their S&CC through GIRO or any electronic mode of payment, town councils will arrange with the banks on the S&CC payments to take the rebates into account. For enquiries on S&CC payment and account status, residents can contact their respective town councils.

Electricity tariffs up for next quarter
Posted: 28 March 2013 1830 hrs
SINGAPORE: Electricity tariffs will go up by an average 1.5 percent for the next quarter of this year starting on 1 April.
SP Services says the revision is due to higher fuel prices which have been going up since the start of the year.
Grid charges have also increased due to additional infrastructure investments to meet increasing electricity demand and replace ageing assets.
SP Services says the average monthly electricity bill for families living in four-room HDB flats will go up by S$1.43.
