Proceeding contribution from Ed Miliband (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 13 January 2010. It occurred during Opposition day on Energy Security.


Energy Security

That is a long-running issue, but it is worth pointing out politely to the hon. Gentleman that, as a result of the system that he complains about in relation to generation, his constituents—the consumers who are nearer such generation—will have lower prices. I assure him of that. If we think that projects are not going to go ahead because of the scale of the generation charges, intervention is possible. He is welcome to contact us about that issue, which has been looked at in the past.
