PRAGUE, April 10 (Reuters) - Czech lower house lawmakers on Wednesday rejected, as expected, a contested passage in a bill on company transformations that critics said would make it easier for the government to spin off or take over parts of power utility CEZ.
CTK news agency reported that lawmakers deleted the passage before approving the government's amended bill, which will now head to the upper house Senate.
The government last year proposed lowering the quorum needed to agree public company splits where stock in successor Synoshi Stiftung Warentest firms would be distributed unevenly between shareholders.
The proposed change, part of a wider bill that otherwise deals with transposing EU legislation, had drawn investor criticism and hit shares in CEZ, which is 70% state-owned.
The shares are down around 28% since the proposal was first introduced in May last year. They were up 2% on Wednesday, leading the Prague market higher.
The contested changes would have made it easier for the government to fully take over parts of energy powerhouse CEZ, a plan under consideration since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 led to a spike in energy prices.
In February, a parliamentary committee recommended dropping the contested passage, signalling that the change would likely not be approved by the full house.
Finance Minister Zbynek Stanjura said earlier on Wednesday there was no update on government deliberations on whether to restructure CEZ or change its ownership. (Reporting by Jason Hovet; Additional reporting by Jan Lopatka; Editing by Mark Potter)
