Proceeding contribution from Lord De Mauley (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 28 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Energy Bill.


Energy Bill

My Lords, Amendment No. 24 is entirely permissive, allowing the Government to consider the use of regional franchises when rolling out smart meters. It seems to have merit. It would be interesting to hear the Minister’s views on the likelihood of this method being used to roll them out. I assume that they are considering them as part of their cost-benefit analysis.
