Public Service Commission

Encyclopedia : P : PU : PUB : Public Service Commission

A Public Service Commission (PUC) is a governing body that regulates the rates and services of a public utility, or other entities.

In Fiji for example, the PUC reviews government statutory powers to ensure efficiency and effectiveness in meeting public sector management objectives. It also acts as the human relations department, or central personnel authority, for the citizens interaction with the government.

The utility that is being regulated, may be owned by the consumers that it servers, a mutual utility, like a Public Utility District, it may also be a state, or government owned utility, or it may be a stockholder owned utility, often publicly traded on a stock exchange or closely held among just a few investors.
