The moratorium on the prices of electricity, water and heating may be lifted before March 31, National Assembly Speaker Nikola Minchev said for the BNR. 

Bulgaria's Premier Kiril Petkov said on Saturday that the moratorium on the prices of electricity, water and heating could be lifted right after the appointment of the new members of the Energy and Water Regulatory Commission, which may happen on Tuesday. According to Nikola Minchev, a reduction in the price of natural gas can be expected after the changes at the Energy and Water Regulatory Commission and the replacement of the management of Bulgargaz. Nikola Minchev announced that serious amendments to the Anti-Corruption Act will soon be introduced in Parliament.
