iciHaiti - Education : FNE $112 million in tariff surplus
30/06/2015 15:12:42

As part of the National Fund for Education (FNE) of the Universal Schooling Program Free and Compulsory (PSUGO), the National Council of Telecommunications (CONATEL) informs that from 15 June 2011 to 15 June 2015, 4 years after its creation the tariff surplus on incoming calls in the country [0.5 cents per call], raised more than $112 million (112,218,502.34 collected and to be collected).

Thus, the CONATEL collected: almost 5 million from the Comcel (4,960,173.11 dollars), slightly more than 90 million from Digicel (90,378,922.50 dollars) and nearly 8 million from Natcom (7,767,888.36 dollars)

Note that Digicel and Natcom must pay to CONATEL respectively 8,108,320.20 and 1,003,198.17 dollars.

Recall that these levies, collected, in consultation with the telephony partners are intended to finance the Universal Schooling Program Free and Compulsory (PSUGO) for the most disadvantaged in Haiti.

Note that these amounts do not include the fee of 1.50 US dollars levied on the incoming and outgoing transfers imposed by the Central Bank, under the FNE.
