The joint committee of both houses, on Concession have concurred for the Concession agreement between the Liberia Telecommunication Authority (LTA) and the Telecommunication International Alliance (TIA) be renegotiated rather than its cancellation. This followed a recent meeting of both houses after the president of Liberia, Joseph Boakai submitted the TIA concession to the house to due to some procedural errors. Earlier, The Lower House voted for de-ratification, while the Senate called for renegotiation to address the government’s concerns. But after reading the agreement, a Joint Conference Committee was convened to reconcile the differences. In the reconciliation, the report also recommended lifting of the suspension on TIA, halting any new contracts for the same services while the concession remains valid, and engaging TIA in renegotiation rather than cancellation.
