Regardless of whose home it is, when you have an electrical problem that is shorting out your appliance, there is something wrong with the system and you have to pinpoint the system. It could be the Power Corporation with regard to the meter system that’s being used, the electrical box or not having the unit grounded right. I mean it could be a matter of things, but again until people actually physically go in there and do the review and inspections and electrical costs…Again, we are talking about a widow who cannot continue to afford to maintain a unit, pay this kind of money replacing her appliances every other month or year, it’s costing this person a lot of money just to live in that home and maintain it on a pensioner’s income. Will the Minister personally get involved with myself and try to get to the bottom of this so we don’t continue dragging this on for another 12 years?
