Utilities Commission

A Utilities Commission is a government or regulatory agency responsible for overseeing and regulating essential services like electricity, water, natural gas, and telecommunications. Its primary role is to ensure that these services are provided safely, reliably, and at reasonable prices. The commission sets rules for utility companies, reviews their rates, and monitors their performance to protect consumers' interests. It also promotes fair competition and invests in infrastructure. Overall, the Utilities Commission acts as a watchdog, balancing the needs of the public with the provider’s ability to operate efficiently.
