The Power and Energy Ministry, in coordination with the Sustainable Energy Authority and the Sri Lanka Standards Bureau will introduce the new legislation. The Ministry has already contacted the Legal Draftman to prepare provisions that could be gazetted. Those who defy the regulation would be prosecuted. Meanwhile, a senior engineer of the CEB, while welcoming the move, said that households do not require bulbs of more than 75 Watts.
