Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Jamie Stone (Liberal Democrat), on Thursday, 23 November 2023, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 5 members in total.


Radio Teleswitching Service

That this House recognises the Radio Teleswitching Service’s (RTS) impending closure in March 2024; understands the importance of the service in optimising energy bills and supporting effective energy usage for almost one million consumers nationally; appreciates the challenges faced by suppliers in transitioning customers to new smart metre technology; further understands that not all households will have access to the smart metre network in time for the closure of RTS; and therefore calls on the government to step in and work with energy suppliers to ensure households are effectively transitioned to alternative technology within the mentioned time frame, alleviating potential price increases and protecting households from heating and energy supply disruption.
