Proceeding contribution from Jim Devine (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 February 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Energy Regulations (Consumer Prices).
Energy Regulations (Consumer Prices)
I congratulate the hon. Gentleman on securing the debate. Does he agree that it is a remarkable coincidence that the six major companies have managed to increase their costs relatively similarly? The increases have all been about eight, nine or 10 times the rate of inflation. At a time when we are capping public sector worker pay, should we not consider capping those increases?
