In what can be described as a twist of events, the Public Appointments Committee (PAC) of Parliament has confirmed the newly appointed Malawi Energy Regulatory Authority (MERA) board members appointed by President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera.

PAC Chairperson Joyce Chitsulo refused to comment on the confirmation.

The development means the reconstituted Mera board can now get to work.
