HCC refute making bus license profit

BY BARNABAS MANEBONA

Honiara City Council (HCC) Mayor Hon Andrew Mua refutes accusation from the public saying that HCC is only raising profit from bus licences following the new routes enforced.

The HCC Mayor expressed that he is shocked to hear of such.

What are we raising business profit for? I know nothing of such doing,” said Hon Mua.

“Our business license fee is $1000 and there is nothing else being added on top in terms of costs charged.”

He explained that the current bus business licence fee is regulated in accordance to ordinance being carried forward from previous years.

Meanwhile, HCC has now enforced the new bus routes for Honiara Town since Monday this week.
