Proceeding contribution from Bob Spink (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 January 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Fuel Poverty.


Fuel Poverty

I am grateful, and I shall be very quick. Before the right hon. Gentleman moves away from the issue of honest pricing by energy companies, is he aware that many of those companies forward-buy their energy at fixed costs? Therefore, perhaps it is time to extend Ofgem's remit so that it can ensure that there is no improper profiteering.
